We had a dairy farm..about 50-60 head of milking cows. I have done my share of farm work and gardening so hopefully when and if we can get out of this city it will have stuck enough to be useful. LOL I haven't been on the farm in 44 yrs., although in those yrs I have had many personal veggie gardens in my yard. But Fl is so much different than a northern state. The only good advice I could give you is ask around on here in a few of the others topic rooms and do a lot of research on line. I have found many intelligent people on here with a wealth of good advice and info. Good Luck
