    Description

    welcome to our little paradise in Fullestad, Myrhagen. My husband Ronny and I live here with our 2 dogs, 5 cats, chickens, quails, ducks and budgies. Ronny works as a police officer and I am trained in vegetable growing and gardening. We are about to start a vegetable farm and a small farm shop. I also have plans to make a forest garden and try to become self-sufficient as far as possible.
