I don't know where to post photos or I would indeed share. As for livestock, we plan for goats. Cows are too much care and we just don't know enough. Goats are harder to kill! It will be 4 or 5 years before the goats can roam free in the orchard; otherwise they will eat the trees.
We plan the orchard essentially for our use but realize there will be overages of everything so will either make a roadside stand or do farmers market. Nothing extravagent.
Can't even imagine trying to do a paved road up here. I haven't seen anyone do it except the county. Even the private roads are mostly dirt/rock.
I missed your request r/t birds of paradise... sorry. However you should be able to phone
Plant it Hawaii and get a quote. They are nice but will only sell to you if you havea GE reasle #.
When will you be here next?
May you live in interesting times.

I want to be the kind of woman that, when my feet
hit the floor each morning, the devil says
"Oh Crap, She's up!"
