Farmer Information:

My wife and I feel led by God to begin a life in farming. I have about 5 years of experience in produce farming and another 4 years in the greenhouse. My wife is a nurse and plans to begin a faith-based non-profit on the farm for young, impoverished mothers. I am currently a sales manager, but I am supposed to be a berry farmer.

What we are looking for is about 20-30 acres suitable to grow strawberries, raspberries, pumpkins, etc., for a pick-your-own style business. A historic home and a small wood lot would be ideal…we are history nuts! Just to be clear, we are not interested in leasing, we are interested in a farm of our own with an old home. We do not have a large budget.

My wife and I are open to Berks, Lancaster, Chester, Lebanon, York, and Adams counties. We know the Lord has this for us, so if you feel led to help a younger married couple achieve their purpose, we hope to hear from you.

  • Formulated Business Plan
  • Marketing Plan
  • Crop Production
Agricultural Degrees / Certifications:

I have taken many courses through Penn State Cooperative Extension
I have a bachelor’s degree, but not in ag.

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.
