Years of Farming Experience: 14

Farmer Information:

I am 30 years old and I have lived in beautiful Pennsylvania farm country my whole life. Growing up, two of my neighbors had farms and I loved spending time there.

My passion for animals led me to career opportunities working on farms, horse barns, and ultimately into the veterinary medical field. I have spent the last 14 years caring for companion animals, farm animals, wild animals, and even animals involved in medical research and development.

I currently work on a farm where I take care of 12 horses, 4 donkeys, 35 sheep, 15 cows, about 40 geese, and roughly 60 chickens. I have always dreamed of the opportunity to own or operate a farm of my very own. I have never found the peace and fulfillment in life that I feel when working on farms.

I would love to utilize my experience in the Agricultural Tourism industry and extensive experience with farm management and animal husbandry to create a successful, sustainable, and ethical farm business. I also plan to incorporate my personal and professional experience in gardening/small scale crop production to sustain the farm and its production as well as add another avenue for farm-generated income.

I would love the opportunity to discuss my farm experience and collaborate with local farmers living the dream! I hope to hear from you soon.

Hello, I’m a farmer with a 26-year marriage and 2 sons. I’m looking for a farm (30 acres or greater) to put down family roots. I grew up actively farming 80 acres, with 5 years off for military service.  I have a strong mechanical/maintenance background, I was in 4-H beef club from 8-18, experienced with raising grain and hay crops, looking to expand into vegetables, and developing a CSA.

I’m well-employed in an 9-5 Federal job, have no debt, own my home, have an aggressive start on a down payment.  I’d like to develop a relationship with a farmer seeking to retire, but who’d like to pass on their tradition and allow me to maintain an operating budget as the ground is returned from fallow. My desire is to acquire a farm, not a potential development property, so I’m just fine with a few PA hills and groundhog holes.

We are a married couple with young kids looking for an opportunity to start farming. My grandparents were dairy farmers in Chester County and my cousins currently are dairy farmers in Montgomery County.

I currently work in the Conservation/Agricultural field in the Southeast/South Central part of the state. We don’t have much experience, several years working on several dairies and experience with processing/jugging milk, but I have always wanted to be a farmer and have a true passion for farming and agriculture.

Looking for a farming opportunity in which to gain experience, build equity, and the chance to raise our kids around a farm.

Housing on the farm would be preferred.
