Hello everyone, hope everyone has had a great break during this festive season.
A welcome to all those that are joining or new to this goat farming Group.
Bear with me as I am fairly new on Skool still trying to figure out how it works so feel free to help and jump in whenever you can.
For starters my name is Baraka. I am a Ugandan by born currently living and working in Australia and doing goats farming over back home in Uganda. I am a very passionate livestock farmer with a particular love on goats and cattle. I was born and raised at a farm, and I have been doing goats farming for almost a decade now, so I feel like I have lived alongside animals all my life.
I hope to share my knowledge with others, offer goat farming courses and really interact with likeminded people from all over the globe.
Please feel to participate and introduce yourself perhaps your names, where you live and what you hope to gain from such platforms.
For now, I will leave this text here.
