My girlfriend sent me this link and I thought I would share with you all..... I think I would take the Raising poultry and the canning workshops to start. It's funny, some people can read a book figure it out, others have to be taught (like me) then it's all good. http://www.homesteadheritage-homesteading.com/classes.html
