Goals, Values, Vision

Right now, I am eager to learn more about farming directly from the people who do it every day.

I would love to eventually own and operate a farm. I would like to have farm animals like chickens and sheep. I currently work in a corporate office and dislike working behind a computer for 8 hours a day.

My husband and I have a engineering degrees and I think that we could use our knowledge of technology and materials to help moderize a farm.
