sheep, rabbit, chickens and bees. I will be growing and selling teas,
apothacary herbs, smokable herbs ,and spices.And holding workshops to
show about homesteading, organic farming, and alternative eco
building techniques also to paying students. The animals and gardens
will also provide our needed food. We are striving to make sure that
this homestead is self sufficient even to the point of being off grid
at some point in time. I have also sectioned of part of my property
to host some cob-strawbale cottages. These cottages will be housing
abused women and their children as a safe sanctuary to help them with
their first steps of escaping to a new life as a survivor. The
gardens and livestock will also provide for them.
working on bringing together needed board members to enable us to get
our 501. From that point, we will be eligable for grants and funding
to cover the costs of going off grid. Our eligablilty is based on us
being a woman owned, eco farm, that is in a rural depressed area.
Here is a rough business outline.
Wanderer's End Farm is the parent company with a number of subsidiary
operations within its control and is responsible for regulatory
compliance.
The WE Sanctuary is the main subsidiary operation. The WE Sanctuary
Women's Refuge is an independent, voluntary organisation.There is
currently a waiting list that is graded by priority of those in need
to acertain who will recieve our services first. My current residence
is in a small apartment that I open to those with the most need.
WE Sanctuary provides the facility where women and children who are
in domestic violence situations are offered crisis accommodation in a
safe and secure environment; 24 hour access to staff availability; counselling and education; and referral to other services as

The third subsidiary operation is the WE Farm and gardens which will
