I’m a beginning farmer looking to start a flower farm. I am currently a remote UMASS Amherst Sustainable Food and Farming student and will graduate in the Spring of 2027. I am currently working on a business plan which will be finalized Spring 2026. I will possibly acquire plants by the end of the year and would like to take the opportunity to begin the work. I have previous work as a brand ambassador.

We are looking for underutilized farm land to grow hazenuts on plus call home. I have over 40 years expierence working with ornamental plants and turf management. Currently myself and Michelle brooks manage 2 seperate orchards that are fully planted and are looking to expand. We have a full busniss plan in place. I am also one of three founding memebers of a cooperative in which all local farms growing hazelnuts will be able to sell their harvest to. The co=op will then process and distribute several diffrent hazelnut products. The key things needed for a hazelnut orchard is deer fencing and land that is not overly wet.

I am looking for 10-25 acres of land to begin my operations that will consist of the following: 500 laying hens, 1000 broilers, a 1.5-acre vegetable garden, two cows, six sheep, a small processing mobile unit that can be eventually removed. I am seeking to form or collaborate with a farmer who would be willing to let me either use a portion of their unused land or construct a 1-5 year leases agreement. This would position my operation to immediately build soil nutrient, sequester carbon, give value to the property and or eventually exercise a motion to either buy or lease for long term.

I am a beginning farmer that has a background in food service. I am particularly interested in permaculture and agrotourism. I’d like to work with other farmers/landowners who are particularly interested in heirloom and specialty produce and developing relationships with restaurant owners/food businesses. Secondary to that, I would also like to either start a CSA or help continue an existing CSA and possibly incorporate community-building activities as well; such as work-share programs, art sessions on the farm, guest chef dinners, etc. I’m also interested in maintaining/helping someone maintain a agrotourism business, such as a hipcamp spot, cabin, or bed and breakfast using produce grown on site.

I have experience with pigs and laying hens, would like to gain experience with sheep, horses/donkeys, and other poultry as well. I also have experience with small-scale organic vegetable production (less than 10 acres).

My homestead was created in 2021 as a livestock breeding program; however, it’s morphed into providing livestock education and interaction to my local community with the herd animals by providing cuddle sessions, special events, and family photography onsite. I’m looking for continued opportunities to expand business operations, marketing strategies, and increased education.

We are a couple currently in college looking for land in Cumberland or York County (or a 45 minute radius from Harrisburg) for crop production. Ideally, we would like to have 7-15 acres for a farmstead operation. We are planning to do a permaculture orchard and lavender field along with growing commodity crops, specialty crops, spices, and vegetables. I specialize in animals and my partner specializes in horticulture and business.
