Bringing a Croft into Production
When taking on a derelict croft, it is worthwhile to assess all your options for the croft and formulating a plan before taking steps to address the croft condition.
As a starting point, it is useful to think on the following points:
- What do you wish to get out of the croft?
- What time do you have available to work on the croft?
- Are there family and work commitments to contend with?
- What level of financial input do you wish to put into the croft?
Our practical guides will help you assess this.
