I figure there are plenty of people that farm on here.
Anyone started "from scratch" to build a farm?
I grew up on the farm, and dad has beef cattle over in Benton county (200 miles from me).
I'm starting to look toward the long term and have put some real consideration into cattle farming myself. Rather than build a house on my 10 acres, which at max I could expand to 35 if I could get the neighbors to sell (doubtful), I'd look to buy a decent size chunk of land and build our permanent home + small cattle operation.
I figure if I start now, I'll have a much better chance of enjoying the fruits of my labor.
