Cory

I grew up working on farms and have experience with a variety of agricultural tasks. I've always loved working the land and hope to find an opportunity to farm again, with the possibility of owning a farm someday. I believe in the value of hard work and want to pass that appreciation on to my children (if they'll sit still long enough!). I'm eager to learn, gain new skills, and grow through hands-on experience.

Goals, Values, Vision

I’m looking to partner with someone who can mentor me on the path to becoming a successful farm owner. I bring experience in equipment operation, logistics, physical labor, building and construction, mechanical work, management, financial management, livestock, and some knowledge of fruit trees and pesticide and herbicide use.

My goals in life are to raise my children to be kind, hardworking, and respectful. I want to own a piece of land where I can teach them the value of hard work, caring for the beautiful land our Lord has provided, and living a happy and meaningful life.
