A previous assignment I worked in my career as an inspector, was on a cattle farm. I spent 6 years learning what I could from the farmers who cross breed double muscle cattle for the best quality of meat. I am also a student at Pennsylvania State University, I’m enrolled in Agricultural business marketing degree. My passion in life is Agriculture and I want to get into farming and being able to contribute to my local communities Agricultural programs

I am a 29 year old father of three with a girlfriend soon to be wife. I have always wished I grew up on some type of farm but was really only able to work jobs once and again on them. I am aspiring to own my own goat farm, using them for grazing services and milk products and possibly get into the meat industry. I have been planning this for years now and am beyond ready to dive into it. My family would also be helping me with this adventure so I already have a couple “employees”. (Haha) This is a dream for not only me but my family. Just want to earn a living ourselves and provide a simple but yet bountiful life for our family.

Currently, my fiance and I are looking to create a farm in which we can be self sufficient and bring about community joy. We began this journey not knowing much about farming but through researching, volunteering, and planning, we have been able to cultivate ideas that work best for production and cultivation. We both share a deep love for animals and agriculture. On the weekends, we volunteer at our local farm ensuring that we learn the best practices for starting a farm. Some tasks we do include cleaning horse stalls, planting in greenhouses, and operating the small farm petting zoo. We have come to love these tasks so much that they have inspired us to take a leap of faith and begin planning our own farm.

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.
