[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4095884, member: 26737"] I forgot to mention it directly, but if you're thinking about ag as a funding source for your property, check out the Just a Few Acres Farm YouTube channel. He has several videos about running a small farm as a business, which is a very different proposition from homesteading. You'll also want to talk to the OSU County Extension Agent in the county where your farm will be. You can talk to any agent you want (my dad stuck with the McClain County Extension office even after he moved back to Cleveland County), but the agent in your county is likely to know the situation best. I don't know if they still do, or if other offices do, but the McClain County office used to hold a "Green Acres" (like the TV show) conference for city folks who want to get into the small farm ag business. Also remember that the best way to make a small fortune in ag is to start with a big one... [/QUOTE]
