When I was young my family had a small garden in the back yard. I’ve grown up enjoying the outdoors and God’s creation of plants and animals.
I’m now a husband and father of four. I have a great interest in homesteading, and have done lots of reading and study on it. Becoming a full time farmer is a goal of mine, but in my current state in life working a full time job is necessary. I’ve done tree work for 4 years but am currently working road construction installing traffic lights.
On the half acre lot we rent where we live we have some chickens and ducks. We’ve eaten our birds for meat and collect their eggs. We have a garden that we’re striving to utilize with little to no till methods. We got lots of produce from it last year my favorite being the North Georgia Candy Rosater, a long pumpkin that when baked is so sweet it’s enjoyable eaten plain. We’ve planted some blueberry plants on the property and strive to keep it productive.
I’m looking for opportunities to work more land whether for commercial use or for personal experience on the land. I’d be interested in any opportunities from sheep, to dairy cows, to produce production, to orchard or vineyards. We have a friend an hour north who runs a 70 acre organic produce farm. We eat a lot of produce because of my wife’s genetic disorder. I’d love to hear about any opportunities in my local area. I like the idea of doing things organically and simply. Industrialization has made things to large scale and centered around money and not locality and quality.

Hi!
I am a commercial flower farmer. I only grow perennial plants.
I have an active 55 acre flower farm of myself in Salem county, NJ.
My farm has been profitable so far and I am looking forward to expanding my operations in the Northeast USA.
My operations do not need electricity, water, sewer connectivity, etc. so we are pretty low maintenance. We only enter the premises when planting, then harvesting and occasional weeding/maintenance.
I am only looking forward to long term lease (5 to 10yrs+) of farmland anywhere in Northeast USA.

Hello, my name is Heather Noonan. I am 30 years old and I have lived in beautiful Pennsylvania farm country my whole life. Growing up, two of my neighbors had farms and I loved spending time there. My passion for animals led me to career opportunities working on farms, horse barns, and ultimately into the veterinary medical field. I have spent the last 14 years caring for companion animals, farm animals, wild animals, and even animals involved in medical research and development. I currently work on a farm in Ottsville, Pa, where I take care of 12 horses, 4 donkeys, 35 sheep, 15 cows, about 40 geese, and roughly 60 chickens. I have always dreamed of the opportunity to own or operate a farm of my very own. I have never found the peace and fulfillment in life that I feel when working on farms. I would love to utilize my experience in the Agricultural Tourism industry and extensive experience with farm management and animal husbandry to create a successful, sustainable, and ethical farm business. I also plan to incorporate my personal and professional experience in gardening/ small scale crop production to sustain the farm and its production as well as add another avenue for farm-generated income. I would love the opportunity to discuss my farm experience and collaborate with local farmers living the dream! I hope to hear from you soon.

I am 30 years old, married with two little boys. First generation farmer. Currently have a small farm in northern Maryland by delta PA. Majority of the farm is used for breeding show stock, primarily Scottish highlands. We have some other breeds as well. Wife raises and breeds swine and poultry for meat and sale as well.
I currently own a business (tattoo company) that I have had success in. I was featured on several National tv shows, and competitions for my work on paramount network which has helped me gain a following and a good sense of marketing. I currently use this to promote and grow our client base for our animals as well.
Our goal is to grow the farm exponentially and produce beef cattle, show cattle, pork, chicken, duck, as well as (depending on amount of land) grain and hay.

My name is Brock, I’m 33 and I’ve been farming for the better part of 13 years now. I started out on a raw goat dairy in northern FL, did a formal internship at Soil Born Farms in CA where I later became an assistant manager. We raised sheep, cattle, chickens, orchards, and vegetables. I then became the farm manager at a 50 acre diversified vegetable/sheep farm in southern Oregon. After that I spent the next 3 years starting my own farm business in southern OR raising 3 acres of vegetables, mixed livestock (Chickens, pigs, sheep, ducks) attending 3 farmers markets each week, managing a 30+/- member free-share CSA, and selling to about 10 restaurants. I relocated back east 2 years ago due to unmanaged wildfires that were getting worse each year, as well as drought and water issues. I worked for a year as a farm manger mostly doing tractor work in upstate NY on a 25 acre vegetable farm, and I currently manage the hay, equipment, livestock and orchards at a farm in VT.
My wife is Joelle who has been working at a geoengineering company working in sales and event organizing. She just finished her Masters in Business and in her free time is a certified yoga teacher, avid knitter and flower grower and organizer.
Together we both bring the necessary skills and experiences to operate a profitable farm business.

My husband and I are beginner farmers currently enrolled in the Beginner Farmer Training Program at Rutgers University. Currently we own a small farmette in Burlington County, New Jersey where we raise small stature dairy animals including registered Nigerian Dwarf goats and Miniature Cattle (Jersey’s and Belted Galloway-Dexter crosses). We also have pastured poultry and sell eggs to local customers. Recently, we have started a market garden where we grow vegetables intensively in a small space. I am a bread baker and will be applying for a cottage food permit in order to sell my bread along with the produce that we grow next season. Off of the farm, I work part-time as a pediatric nurse practitioner and my husband is a full-time machine operator for the local gas company. Growing up, my uncle had a beef operation in Potter County, Pennsylvania. Though he no longer actively farms, he still resides on the land and is our mentor. We are looking to purchase a larger farm property so that we can expand our current operation which would include beef and possibly a micro dairy in the future!
