Farming Full Time
Updated Sep 28, 2026
Seeking
- 1 to 5 acres
Looking For the Following
Desired Locations
Plan
Family of (soon to be) four, Mom and Dad are experienced growers! Specifically natural and organic methods, permaculture, intercropping/intensive planting, container gardening, making natural fertilizers, vermiculture and vermicomposting, greenhouse/Cat tunnel winter crops, starter plants, seed saving and so much more! Poultry farming and light husbandry are also passions of ours!
We currently live rurally on our own family land but want more workable land to plant as well as expand market farming efforts. Our land is pure clay and will take time to remediate and build upon-- we do not intend to live on the land itself much longer but turn it into business as well. We are open to discussing more temporary or contractual agreements, however, we would prefer something long term especially land transfer opportunities with learning and partnership at the core!
Desired Transitional Agreement
Description of Desired Transitional Agreement
We are also looking into land transfer and land trust opportunities. We are open to lease to own as well as work to own etc. Land matching is a wonderful opportunity and we would love to pair with farmer(s) who may be wanting to lighten their work load while exploring new options for passing on their land to farmers. We understand legacy and conservation, which are at the heart of everything we do.
Type of Current Production on Farm
Produce / Land Cover
Livestock
Additional Information on Produce or Livestock Needs
Produce goals include both market farming as well as agritourism of sorts and community food system support. Livestock/grazing (will be kept smaller in number) will mainly be used for fertilizer/manure and land maintenance! Poultry are also used for manure as well as eggs!
Preferred Equipment and Infrastructure
Equipment and Infrastructure Details
We have access to a 30x70 cat tunnel that we would be willing to erect in the right space. We are most concerned with suitable housing in order to transition and for efforts to be sustainable. Access to irrigation is also just as important with a preference for wells and natural sources, however, city water will be considered for the right opportunity.

Additional Info on Experience/Education
Dad has 15+ years farming experience with extensive vermiculture/vermicomposting and harvesting experience. Mom has 5+ years of experience especially in intensive cropping and container growing. Both are Farmers Market pros and cooperative entrepreneurs at heart. Both have also Wwoofed as well as explored learning opportunities internationally. We are continually learning, practicing, adjusting and willing to try new and old things. We are truly lifetime learners and understand that their is no knowing it all when it comes to the land.
