I am seeking to learn how to farm to provide food to local communities and expand food availability. I have gardened and am an avid gardener. I have had flocks of quails and have not had true farming experience. I am seeking a smaller space or someone who would be willing to teach. I grew up in the city and have experience in corporate and hospitality.

I was disabled as civilian combat support with the State Department in Iraq after 5 consecutive tours. I’m expecting to be setteling a decade long workers comp claim this next year and want to purchase PA farmland and begin a small farm with horses and small livestock. I was born and raised in PA, served as a Philadelphia City Solicitor and attended Penn State Law.
I am a beginner farmer with little experience but the desire and perseverance to realize a lifetime dream. I love animals and my 15 yr old son is ready to assist me on the farm, so this is for his future as well. I would ideally prefer between 20 to 40 acres of land, but I’m very flexible. I should have around $1M from my settlement to dedicate toward the purchase of a a farm and/or land.

I am currently active duty military (17 Years) serving in the United States Coast Guard. I am a few years from retirement and my family & I plan to move back to our home state in Pennsylvania. My wife and I grew up in the Poconos Area and post retirement we would like to move back and start a family farm together. We are currently in the early stages planning what type of farming we want to do, but highly interested in Agritourism (Christmas trees, orchards, etc). I grew up on a local horse farm learning to appreciate the land and the value of working on it! I hope to give that same sense of pride to my family as we set towards the next adventure of hopefully owning a farm in Pennsylvania! I would like to take away how to best formulate a business and marketing plan, as well as learn from other farmers in the area as I look for the best location.

I hope to continue or create a combination of productive and stewarded land use that serves as both a home and a community resource. Somewhere that supports food, culture, art, and care. I grew up in rural Midwest and have lived in the Philly for about 15 years. Now I’m ready to return to a more natural setting and deepen my connection to land and local community. I have experience with gardening and small-scale food growing, and I’d like to grow that into a collaborative effort with others who share similar values.
