At age 63, I bought a five-acre piece of land that was an abandoned farmstead that hadn't been plowed in over 65 years. This year will be the first summer that I will be re-establishing this farm. I am the first person in three generations to operate a farm in my family. My only regret is that I haven't done this sooner in my life.

I wanted to farm when I was young but dad lost the farm in the early 1980's. Now I've got a 1 acre garden on my daughters place, growing lots of vegetables, especially dry beans. I can get evangelical about beans 'cause they're great sources of protein and fiber and they improve the soil! I am in heaven!

I started farming in 1985. I was age 27. My father told me Id never make it. I was sure of myself....and went ahead. Bought 160 acres. We started milking 30 cows ..... In 1988 we had a drought. Bought everything off of a semi. In 1989 all my seeding froze out. Another year.....bought all the hay off of a semi. Finally.......after that..things went great ! But...... with that all being said........ From age 15.......I saved every penny that fell into my hands. Never went out......never had a drivers license until age 19. Never owned a car / truck until age 25. I helped milk cows and farm on my fathers farm......saved everything I could. Never went to dances...... bars........dated girls......nothing. In the end.....it worked out ! Most people that want to be farmers are not that dedicated. Farming is staying at home.......doing the work. Theres plenty of work to be done !

I have quite a story or our family farm but the long and short of it is it’s getting extremely hard for the small family farm to exist. It just isn’t your world any longer. This is dangerous for humanity I’ve made a decision to return to simplistic healthy living for what is under my control. We rent the land out now however I have sown my share of seeds and harvested many many bushels commercially. I’ve done it , lived it,so did my grandfather whom had the largest impression on me. I was lucky enough to be here and be able to do it.

Nobody seems to get what he said that he'd rather have a few acres at 10 to 15 grand an acre than the 400 he's got. Then he chuckles. That's the reality of what farming is today. The farmers are hard-working folks. But their blood sweat and tears is being overshadowed for the price they pay today. My daughter of 15 wants to get into agriculture. So I've been looking into farming again. It's not what everyone thinks. The family farm of years ago has been abolished by industrialized farming.

I've always thought how cool it would be to be a farmer.

The one thing everyone wants to do as a fad, but not commit or apply the logic and hard lifestyle to do. Nothing good or fulfilling comes easy, or is giving to oneself. The fulfilment and rewards come from the logic passed on, the fulfilment of others receiving the bounty and harvest is joy for them. That is the silent joy of a true farmer.

It’s great inspiration for those that are inheriting a farm and have passion, but for most of us young folks, it’s a dream that we will work for with little financial return. Margins have mostly been decreasing across the board for the past 30 years, people are retreating to the “countryside” with COVID allowing work from anywhere which has driven up land prices, and most banks won’t lend more than a tractor loan and 20 acres to a beginning farmer without a guarantor. Coming from an ag lender’s perspective...

I don't think you get into farming to get wealthy, I didn't get into driving trucks to get wealthy, I did it so I can get by and raise a family. Maybe someone doesn't need to clock in, they could spend all day with their family working the land, reaping what you sow, imagine going whole months with spending money only on bills.
