Goals, Values, Vision
I cut hay using vintage equipment:
1953 IH Farmall Super H
Mower (Currently looking for a replacement)
Massey Ferguson 10, 12, and 124 balers
Various tedders and rakes
A 2001 Dodge RAM 1500
A 2 axle car trailer (hauls both equipment and bales)
I am looking at acquiring at least one, and probably multiple, vintage pull behind combines.
I am not currently farming, due to lack of land.
