Farmer Information:

Young married couple looking to start a family farm focused on pasture raised animals and produce.  I have ten years livestock, produce and row crop experience.  Currently, I have two bred heifers and am looking to grow our herd.  I am currently in the last year of my enlistment in the military and am looking to move back to Pennsylvania with my wife to begin a family farm.  My wife, who also has farm experience, is in her second year of veterinary school.

Transitioning from the military into a family farm would fulfill our dream of raising our future children with the values and maturity that can only be found on a farm.  We are looking to market sustainably raised livestock and create a family farm for our future children.

We are looking to buy land preferably with a house, between 80-200 acres.  We would like to find land in either the Williamsport, Scranton region or near Altoona/State College.

Hello, I’m a farmer with a 26-year marriage and 2 sons. I’m looking for a farm (30 acres or greater) to put down family roots. I grew up actively farming 80 acres, with 5 years off for military service.  I have a strong mechanical/maintenance background, I was in 4-H beef club from 8-18, experienced with raising grain and hay crops, looking to expand into vegetables, and developing a CSA.

I’m well-employed in an 9-5 Federal job, have no debt, own my home, have an aggressive start on a down payment.  I’d like to develop a relationship with a farmer seeking to retire, but who’d like to pass on their tradition and allow me to maintain an operating budget as the ground is returned from fallow. My desire is to acquire a farm, not a potential development property, so I’m just fine with a few PA hills and groundhog holes.

We are a married couple with young kids looking for an opportunity to start farming. My grandparents were dairy farmers in Chester County and my cousins currently are dairy farmers in Montgomery County.

I currently work in the Conservation/Agricultural field in the Southeast/South Central part of the state. We don’t have much experience, several years working on several dairies and experience with processing/jugging milk, but I have always wanted to be a farmer and have a true passion for farming and agriculture.

Looking for a farming opportunity in which to gain experience, build equity, and the chance to raise our kids around a farm.

Housing on the farm would be preferred.
