I am the son of a 3rd generation dairy farmer; I was raised on a dairy farm, and I am now looking to become the next generation to carry on the legacy. I am looking for a dairy farm to rent / lease in Pennsylvania, but we are willing to consider further options. Housing for my family and I would have to be included.
I am also interested in renting crop land in Juniata County.

Passionate, hardworking, creative 24 year old man looking for a farm. I am in the process of developing a specific business plan but I generally I plan to generate revenue with events, rental cabins, meat, and produce. I have worked on farms for four years, three with organic vegetables and one with pastured livestock. I took a permaculture design course last winter and am looking to gain more experience with trees this coming season. Farming wise I will practice silvopasture, growing trees over perennial grasses with livestock grazing, and market gardening. It is important to me to produce good food and I also see value in outdoor experiences. On-farm events like workouts, barbeques, live music will bring in visitors. Those visitors will see that they can buy produce there, and stay in a quiet cabin next weekend. Something really special would be an amphitheater, stage, and studio. A property with varied topography is preferred so some sections can always remain more hidden. This is my vision but I am flexible. Call or email anytime and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

I have been raised in agriculture my whole life. I joined the PA Air National Guard unit in Johnstown, PA. My parents raised me on a farm and now I am looking to expand to raise my future family. I currently grow corn and make hay on my parents ground and I do lease other ground. Im always looking to improve processes. Whether it’s trying new techniques on planting or different crops.

Proposal for Use of Land:
We are going on our third year as market farmers participating in our county’s local farmer’s
markets. We intend to spend the rest of our professional careers operating a market garden /
small farm in order to provide quality products to the consumer that are responsibly produced.
We would like to find land to facilitate this. As we have no mechanical equipment at this time, we can only care for small acreage.
We would prefer a land opportunity with housing. We are open to lease or trade.
Allowing the opportunity for consumers to
buy directly from the farm on which it is grown is high priority. In the future we envision
sharing our passion of working with the earth, especially with youth.
