More Urban Farming

Thursday, December 31, 2009

OAKLAND, Calif. — One of the last places you’d expect to find a farm is in Oakland, but ABC recently ran a story about Novella Carpenter, an Oakland woman we’ve featured before. The video, with accompanying text,  offers a look at how to integrate a garden and small livestock into an urban lifestyle complete with goats. Nigerian Dwarf goats are excellent for small spaces as the story shows.

Ed. Note: As mentioned, check your local ordinances before bringing home any type of livestock.
