I've always had a desire to make my place into a small farm of about the 1940's era. In spite of my "gubment job" ( 1 year till retirement), I have always had a large garden that we can and freeze a lot of the produce from. Beef cows, milk cows, ducks, geese, chickens, turkeys, and an occasional hog for slaughter. I make cane syrup in the fall and rob honey bees when I have a hive. I sold all the beef cows about three years ago and all the hay equipment with them. I rented out all my pasture land after that and have been renting out my crop land to a neighbor for years. I have eleven acres around my house that I use to "play" farmer and keep my two milk cows, my draft horse, and dozens of feathered things on. Once I retire, I plan to enlarge my garden to produce enough to sell some at the local farmers market along with the syrup. I enjoy playing farmer (had enough of the real thing years ago)but it takes a lot of labor to keep it up. Especially since my wife lives in the present and refuses to contribute to my fetish unless I get in a real bind for help.
