We have been kicking around the idea of an event held by Cultivate Farms. We know the power of bringing people together in one space to talk about a topic. And to get aspiring and retiring farmers in the same place could be a brilliant way to get farm ownership and transition discussions going. And to get you fired up.
When talking to aspiring farmers we ask them what their farm ownership plans are. They respond by providing a vision for their farm based on what they could afford to buy right now. 10 acres, 100 acres, a few livestock. What we want you to start thinking about is the farm that you know you can run and make really profitable. Don’t let your access to capital be the limiting factor. We can worry about the pathway to get there later.
