Farmer Information:

We currently have a small (3 acre) farm where we raise mixed vegetables and pastured poultry. We are entirely self-taught from books and just diving in trying new things.

We are looking for an opportunity to find a farmer with a larger farm operation who is willing to work with us, to help educate and train us and then transition the farm operation to us via sale. While our interest is vegetable cropping now, we are open to exploring raising dairy cattle in the future.

I have a management position at an equipment dealership and grew up helping/working on the farm. I realize there is such a steep learning curve in farming and that there are many opportunities to make $10,000 mistakes.

The optimal situation would be an apprenticeship at first, transitioning to a partnership, and then a succession plan with a slow buy out of the farm. The number of acres we are seeking is flexible.

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.
