My wife and I own a 4th generation farm, that has been in my family since 1945. It is roughly 60 acres of open field/crop land, and the other 45 wooded. It starts along the creek and goes upward with rolling hills to the foot of the mountain. We are currently leasing to a local farm family, however we are interested in trying our hand at some specialty products, as well as shopping around different ideas to generate some income. I’d also like to fix up and preserve the existing large barn, which the Harrisburg agency said is a four square bank barn built with first cut timber in the late 1700s.
