Your setup sounds quite ideal.

Venison, fish, chickens, eggs, and home grown vegetables.

Must keep you quite busy.

My families' farm used to do a lot of this, but we stopped most of it bit by bit. Lots of work!

We used to have our own herd of milk cows, sheep, chickens, turkeys, grow our own potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, watermelon, carrots, cabbage, beans, peas, peaches, pears, plums, apricots, eating grapes, wild mushrooms. Not to mention rabbit, hare, wild ducks, pigeons.

Now all we do is eat our own venison and make our own wine. Plus wild game. Not bad though.

Myself I like the 'wild forests'.

My parents still have a special vegetable plot for themselves though and grow more than they can eat.
