Megan said… hello Jacqui, like you, would love to find some one to barter home kill beef and lamb from. Another option would be as per Tara's request http://ooooby.ning.com/group/sharinginauckland/forum/topics/ethically-raised-beef-and-pork

I dont know where a bee hive is but i have tons of bees in my garden. Just throw some borage plants in your garden you can get them in the herb section of your local nursery and the bees will come in mass. no fuss for you or chasing the bees, they come to you.
