Oh that would be wonderful to hear from his perspective as well. Yes my husband is very happy being here but Is not super keen on animals. Also living more naturally including building supplies etc is often a very long and wearying discussion!

Mine is also not a farmer. Barely tolerates the animals and certainly doesnтАЩt help hands on with them (builds lovely fences though!). IтАЩm considering downsizing because itтАЩs too much for just me on top of everything else. He actually resents the garden and animals a bit for taking up my time that should be spent in the house lol. ItтАЩs funny though, because he was raised on organic produce his mom grew and he lived on an organic farm for years (not as a farmer). He loves the vibe of a farm, and eating the food,and before we met he bought our 12 acres. HeтАЩs a little confused I guess ЁЯШЖ

I so get you! He has resented the gardening in the past. I think he is a bit better now as he sees the joy and fullness it brings to my life but if gardening is in the way of something he deems more important there will still be a lot of tension. Sorry I donтАЩt have advice just to commiserate.
