[QUOTE="Wild Carrot, post: 4233750, member: 72500"] Hi there! It has been a while since I was last on this forum. Intro and update on my situation: 1. I have always dreamed of one day buying some land and planting and growing my own orchard (perhaps an apple one...). However I have no real contacts in the agricultural sector nor real knowledge on orchards (stupid dream I know lol). More lately in life, buying land started to become a feasible option. 2. So a little while back I signed up to this forum to start asking questions (on a wide range of farming matters). However it quickly became apparent that there was so much I needed to know... 3. So I bought a load of books on agroforestry etc and took a break from the forum to start doing some proper thorough study. 4. I'm currently working my way through these books. And man, there really is a lot to know! But studying aside, I feel like I could really do with some advice from someone with real life experience in the industry. So I've decided on going to an orchard event in October to see more about what the industry is about (and hopefully get to meet people who really know their stuff on orchards). 5. But equally, I don't want a free ride (and I could do with a proper consultation on agroforestry). Is there anyone here who has done such a thing (paid for a consultation on agroforestry) and if so, how did you find your contact? If I got into agroforestry, it would be an entirely new enterprise for me and so I can't hope for recommendations from word of mouth etc (as I know nobody). [/QUOTE]
