There has been a bit of discussion on this forum about hobby farmers and fulltime farmers.
I'm a hobby farmer because I want my kids to benefit from the lifestyle and experience of owning land and livestock. When I was a kid I spent all my holidays on my Grandfather's and Uncle's farms. It was a great experience and I want my kids to have the same benefits. I'd rather them grow up with lots of space chasing cows and riding horses than sitting outside 7 11 loitering with a bunch of other bored kids getting up to no good. I'm not a cattle expert (unlikely I ever will be) but I feel fortunate to be able to own a few. I certainly appreciate all the help and shared experiences I've recieved on ths forum.
Here's a few pics of my kids enjoying our property.
