    I did for nearly 10 years. He of course helped with building fences, a hay barn, etc. But I did the day to day chores. I’m now 64 and we retired 1400 miles to Texas. I only have chickens and quail which are manageable for me with my health. Hubs built me raised beds and manually filled each one….it took 30yds of mushroom compost. I’m grateful he’s still in excellent health at 76. We’re trying to keep things manageable for me as we age. No more livestock but more quail eggs are in the incubator!
