Animals
Livestock such as goats, pigs and rabbits can be great companions for your
urban ag system, but they require more care and consideration compared to
plants. Ensuring the security, health and happiness of the animals is of the
utmost importance. Diseases can be spread from animals to humans therefore
proper sanitary practices are essential.
