There are two possible sites available. Of the two, the home site offers the best start up location, while progression/succession needs to be built into the design to enable a possible future move. Further detail can be found on the Survey and Analysis page
Holmgren's Principles
A key principle for me with this design was 9. Use Small and Slow Solutions - I tend to look for bigger markets and outlets than I need, and then be put off when I can't find them - the Country Market is small, and does not produce great yields, but as a starting point, a discipline, and a first outlet, it is great.
