Hello, my name is Tyler. I am 22 years old and originally from Massachusetts now in New Hampshire. I have been farming for about 8 years originally growing tree fruits and now growing produce, primarily sweet corn. I am looking to start the next chapter of my farming career and interest in possibly mentoring under someone for a couple years in hopes of starting my own farm. I am open to and interested in all types of agriculture including both crop farming and livestock, I am also willing to relocate just about anywhere as opportunities in my area are very limited.

Engineering and bakery positions are currently held. With precision agriculture farming and bakery at the core of our ideas. A young couple with a plan to not depend on the commodity but to depend on the land. We hope to open our own farm and bakery, small scale, around 3 acres, with access for people, some wooded lot for firewood, and some to grow vegetable crops. We have experience with volunteering for 3 years and have grown our own crops across a variety of things. We are now saving capital to lease and require help. We wish to find like-minded people who can help us and us them when necessary to propel our future. And we believe Farm Link does just this. We have searched through the endless information, but Farm Link does it all. We hope to be able to discuss more.

Currently working as a nurse. My experience is in hobby farming; both here in PA and in TX. My goal is to purchase a home with acerage so that my children and I can establish our own little farm, and work towards a self-sufficent life. Business wise Id like to have a little farm stand, or rent an occasional table at a market; but do not have plans for a large scale business. I just want to create something that my family can love, and it loves them back for generations.

I grew up in farmland areas around Minneapolis, much of which has since been developed into suburbs and townhomes. While I didn’t live on a farm myself, I often helped school friends with chores like collecting eggs, feeding animals, stacking hay, and pitching in during planting or harvest. My fiance also has an agricultural background. He worked summers locally here for pioneer hi-bred, helping in corn pollinating, and his grandfather who we are still close with grew up on a 100-acre family farm with 15 children. That farm was eventually sold because none of the family felt prepared to take on the responsibility of managing so much land. Seeing both my own childhood farmland vanish to development and my husband’s family farm slip away has deepened my conviction that farmland needs to be protected and cared for. My goal is to start small, learn the skills I need through hands-on experience, and grow food sustainably in a way that supports my community and ensures that land stays in agriculture for the next generation.

I am currently an engineer working in the technology sector. I started a local urban farm when I was in high school – and I am now looking to bring the knowledge I have gained from the tech ecosystem to the agriculture space.

I’ve been working in greenhouse production for about 1.5 years. Part of the experience was in commercial production and part in production for a botanical garden. Personally, I have been growing my green thumb at home and have harvested veggies and maintain native and perineal plants. I’m hoping to acquire land to expand my passions and be able to host/offer community space for the exchange of education and knowledge of land stewardship among underserved communities. I see the rapid industrialization of the available farm land and the harm caused to our environments, and how important it is preserve it and educate the next generation of farmers.

Some knowledge with soil science, plant nutrition, pesticide application, organic growing practices such as KNF, soil/microbe/nutrient relationships etc. I’m just a young father with a dream to run a farm with his family. My wife and I never fit in with the typical 9-5 crowd and we’ve always wanted to start a farm but with society the way it is and having 2 children, it makes it hard to achieve those goals financially.
