We are a family looking to preserve a farm for future generations. We want to ensure that that farming land continues to be used appropriately. We have both worked other careers and have come to realize the importance of farming at the heart of this country. We have a small hobby farm and years of gardening experience, but limited knowledge of actual farming practices. We would love a situation where someone is looking to mentor and maybe even stay on at the property.

Goals, Values, Vision
We would love to find a property where we can raise more animals. We have kept chickens and ducks and enjoy making farm to table possible for the community. Other branches of our family have had dairy and Christmas tree farms. I loved working on their land and being part of local tradition.
My husband is in his last military tour, and we are working on plans for the next phase of our lives. We have a very close family, with 6 kids, most of them grown and starting their own families. They help us with our gardens and poultry now, and are excited to be a part of this next adventure as well. One is a vet assistant, one is a machinist, and another is learning auto mechanics. We pride ourselves on being self-sufficient and finding ways to fix things ourselves.
