So I have a 31 x 21 foot shed on 10 acres. I want to do something as a personal business in the shed or maybe with the 10 acres to make a living. I was thinking of raising goats and maybe doing wood working. Any other ideas on how I could make some money with the property for a personal business? Id prefer it if I could work from the property.
paint a giant sign for $10 handjobs on the shed and get to work
Bees!! 100 lbs of honey a year per hive.
Grow and sell cut flowers if you can set up a farm stand.
Goats are great especially paired with bees, candles, soap etc.
Whatever you do diversify your crops and income as much as you can so when one project fails another is still kicking.
Before anything I really recommend "The One Straw Revolution" By Masanobu Fukoaka. It's a short read that got me into permaculture and really makes you think about simple farming practices.

Location? Elevation? Climate? OPs existing skill set? Distance to potential markets?
Have you any experience in animal husbandry? And commercial experience in woodworking? Ten acres isn't much but there is money in small scale plantings if your willing to bust your balls. What qualifications and experience do you have? Not giving us much here op

What kind of small scale plantings?
What qualifications and experience do you have? Not much im pretty much a lay man but I can sure fence the fuck out of a place.
If you go with goats just realize they will fuck up pretty much most fencing. I have two boer's and they are pretty big and can get into a lot of trouble. Sheep are easier.
