for a whole host of purposes. Ten of those acres are for hobbyist shooting as many of us are either Civil War or Revolutionary War renactors and we like to shoot our old guns and the ocassional cannon (2 inchers following the Woodruff design).

Mostly I like the fresh eggs, strawberries, and watermelons we have now. And lots of fresh water prawns.
