I am looking to establish a small, diversified micro-farm in Pennsylvania focused on practical, sustainable food production. My interests include microgreens and intensive crops, poultry, and small-scale fish production. I want to develop a farm that can produce food and income on a relatively small amount of land while allowing me to continue building my hands-on agricultural skills and knowledge.
An important part of my goal is making practical farming skills accessible to people who may not fit the traditional image of a farmer. I have two disabled children, so accessibility and creating meaningful opportunities for people with disabilities is something that is personally important to my family. I would like the farm to eventually become a place where we can develop and share practical, adaptable farming methods, skills, and educational resources with our community. I am looking for the land, experience, mentorship, and knowledge needed to turn that vision into a sustainable working farm.

Wanting to get on a piece of property and learn to farm to support my family and our country. I know farmers are a dying breed and has been goal of mine to work my own piece of land. I have limited experience in agriculture. Currently have 14 chickens and small garden with the limited space I have. I have worked in construction my whole life. I’m currently a superintendent for a dirt work company. What I lack in experience in farming I make up for in work ethic. Not dead set on any particular path in terms of what to farm. I’d like to farm the type of stock that is most needed in our state to help support our country whatever that may be weather is livestock, agriculture or a combination of both.

I grew up Amish on an organic grass-fed dairy farm in the heart of holmes county OH. I worked a few different jobs over the Years from mechanic work to warehouse management, but always seemed to end up going back to the farm. I started running the home farm in January of 24 Got married in Oct 2024 and we were planning to take over the home dairy farm. Ran it for to years while living a mile away. Long story short, Family struggles led to us throwing in the towel and saying if it wrks better for one of the other siblings we don’t want to stand in the way. Right now I’m working For local business guy that owns up to 300 acres, have a small herd of beef a few sheep and possibly raise grain for seed, being he owns a seed company. But working for a farmer is not my dream in the far future. It’s great I can gain experience and not pay the price of failure, But part of the reason people farm is the lifestyle and culture and raising a family. I’m still not sure exactly how our journey will unfold, but we want our own farm someday. One of my goals for farming would be to create a greater awareness of how essential small family farms are. I’ve seen these 100 acre farms go all split up and built up and it makes my blood boil but what can you do about it. Farming and the preservation of it must be a community endeavor. I currently really have nothing other than desire.

Over the last five years I have been researching and practicing sustainable agriculture techniques. This year I dedicated my small 65X30 space to grow cut flowers to sell in my community. I was both shocked and amazed at the unbelievable output of love and support from my neighbors. As I connected with more people I decided to pursue growing in an even more passionate way and expand my production. My dream is to create a U-Pick flower farm preferably located in Washington County to give back to the community that helped raise and support me. I hope to someday create a space of beauty and safety that all members of my county can enjoy. If the space would allow for it a wedding venue would be an amazing addition of value for the people who live here. My goal is to create a space of beauty where people can create, enrich, and enjoy love while also providing for me and my family.
