Entering Farmer: #20369

I am 35 years old and a 5th generation farmer in search of a 1st generation farm for my wife and 4 children. I am a U.S. Army OEF veteran.

I was born and raised on a farm in Berks County, Pennsylvania. We raised feeder pigs, chickens and a cow/calf operation. We grew cattle hay and horse hay along with cash crops such as corn and soybeans.

I’m looking to use more regenerative techniques to work the land to improve soil health and to use organic matter as fertilizer. My goal is to be more organic than the generations before me and to give my children the life I had growing up on a farm.
