I'm a small newer guy myself. I started with 15 acres i rented from a friend's mother. I asked her about it and she gave me a shot. Around here, it's next to impossible to grab the bigger chunks of land, so I've focused on the smaller stuff. A few winters ago, I sat down and got land owner information off the county website that also shows gis maps so you can measure off exactly how much was there. I sent out 1/2 dozen or so letters explaining who I and my wife were (both have lots of experience) and telling them how we were trying to grow our small farm. Threw in rent offers to a couple i was quite sure weren't getting paid fair. Picked up one field right away. Just got an email this spring saying I was next in line for another field because of a death. Both because of the letter I sent out. Had a guy call me wanting alfalfa in a small field. Knew I did some hay and had smaller equipment. Picked up another field the same way. Said he was tired of staring at corn all summer. Some people just don't like the big guys. Gotta just get your name out and ask. It's a slow process, but people take notice and have been surprisingly loyal and receptive.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
