My name is Robert, I’m 40 years old and have recently started a hydroponic greenhouse that grows leafy greens and herbs. I have been doing a home garden for many years but have recently decided that I would like to do this full time in the near future. I would like to provide the local community with fresh local and clean produce year round. My plan is to have several greenhouse set up to grow a variety of crops such as lettuce, herbs, and vine crops.

My name is Nathan I am soon to be a father of 4 and before we moved to butler we had a homestead in Mercer county. I have experience raising Chickens, Quail and Ducks for eggs and meat. I also had rabbits for meat and fiber. We had gardens set up with containers, raised beds, grow bags and a small tower garden. My goal is to get into crop production to help not only feed my family but my community. I want to get started so I can register in agriculture for taxes and Business. This would give my family the opportunity to apply for farm loans to get the acreage we desire to have a functioning farm and help the community with local produce and eggs.

My husband and I are looking to move to a rural area in or outside of the Lehigh valley. We have started gardening at home and have the desire to homestead where we would garden, have some animals (ducks , goats,maybe eventually cattle) ideally we would live a pond to fish or stream and also have wooded land for hunting as well. We would love to be able to turn this into a home business and work the farm and share knowledge and resources with others as well grow in experience.

I am a wife, homeschooling mom, and small business owner. I have volunteered on a horse farm for a year and grown a small garden. After much research, I want to start a herd of Nigerian Dwarf goats. I’m looking to use the goat milk for personal use, but mostly for establishing a Goat Milk Skin Care products business. I’m looking for a farm on approximately 5 acres with a house for my family, barn/shed for goats, land for growing vegetables, and a farmstand for selling vegetables, goat milk skin care products, and more.

27 years old, casually looking to grow my operation. Currently farm just about 70acres of mainly hay for livestock and horses. But also some row crops. I am hoping to start a beef operation because I enjoy being around cows, and knowing where and what went into the food I eat.

My wife and I are seeking a long-term opportunity to live and manage a small, diversified farm or homestead, ideally one in transition to new caretakers. I’ve managed and worked on educational and organic farms across New England—most recently at the Good Life Center and Four Seasons Farm in Maine—and have several years of experience with vegetable growing, small livestock care, and farm stewardship. My wife is a teacher, writer, and experienced farm caretaker who has helped raised goats and tend gardens.
We’re drawn to farming as a way of life that blends care for the land with community and creativity, and we’re hoping to find a place where we can grow into long-term stewardship alongside those ready to pass their work on.
