    Description

    Hello, I recently bought a property with outbuildings in order to be able to renovate them and put back in exposed stone.
    The work initially planned is much more important and unfortunately I am exhausted as well as my son-in-law and my daughter.
    The initial project is to renovate the main house then to consolidate the outbuildings which are starting to crumble by using mainly recycled materials by resurfacing the stones and using the wood already present on site. And my project is to soon form my animal protection association for cats to also protect many other animals and take them in and perhaps in reception until their end of life.
    On site, we have already collected chickens, quails, sheep, and other animals will arrive soon.
    I am located in the Creuse in the countryside I am surrounded by cows and many other animals.
    Part of the land and use for a vegetable garden to consume fresh produce grown without chemical fertilizers.

    Bonjour j'ai acheté récemment une propriété avec des dépendances afin de pouvoir les rénover et remettre en pierre apparente.
    Les travaux initialement prévu sont beaucoup plus importants et malheureusement je m'épuise ainsi que mon gendre et ma fille.
    Le projet initial est de rénover la maison principale ensuite de consolider les dépendances qui commencent à s'écrouler en utilisant principalement des matériaux recyclés en refaisant réapparaître les pierres et en utilisant le bois déjà présent sur place. Et mon projet est de prochainement former mon association de protection animale de chats pour protéger aussi de nombreux autres animaux et les prendre en accueil et peut-être en accueil jusqu'à leur fin de vie. Sur place, nous avons déjà recueilli des poules, cailles, brebis, et d'autres animaux vont arriver prochainement.
    Je suis située en Creuse en pleine campagne je suis entourée de vaches et plein d'autres animaux.
    Une partie de terrain et utiliser pour un jardin potager afin de consommer des produits frais cultivés sans engrais chimiques.
