[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1400049, member: 24816"] It's hard to find farms to rent here too, most land that comes available is spoke for pretty quick. I am in a similar boat, 42 as well, and am trying to make a living from the farm. We are in some pretty steep country, and most of my life I heard people say we couldn't grow corn. We only have a few flat places of 2-3 acres apiece and those are in different locations, so it would be a pain to move equipment that much for that little. Used to raise tobacco on those little plots. Now I'm planning to raise quite a bit of garden on one of them. In recent years, some folks are raising corn and soybeans on places that I never thought I would see that happening. I've tried different kinds of cattle farming, ( steers, cows and calves, dairy calves,) as well as sheep, and a little bit of garden produce. Disappointments are a reality of life, just keep on keeping on, and that's what makes the successes more satisfying. [/QUOTE]
