| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 2:17:02 PM | Not likely that I would do that. A ranch home with some horses , a place to retreat and do some writing...away from the world...yeah sure.
But actually working a farm? No. | |

| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 3:55:51 PM | | <<< Me. It's different way of life. You either love or hate it. I currently live in the country on 4 acres and am always looking for a more rural area to live. I did the livestock for a time and really enjoyed it. I'm not the type of girl who will be living in the city chaos, been there done that, hated it. It's a way I'd like to raise my children. The ppl tend to be more neighborly. It's a trade of in terms of lifestyles, it's all in what you are willing to sacrifice for your wants and needs. | |

| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 8:58:43 PM | I grew up on a farm, moved away to persue an education/career, and moved back by choice 3 years ago. I now live in the family farmhouse, sitting on 250 acres...i'm not a farmer, unfortunately - our dairy farm has been shut down for 15 years. But we still own the land, I am custodian, and I hope, someday, to turn it into a viable business (greenhouse? shrub and tree farm? hmmm).
don't give up hon. there are a few of us country girls left. :) I have a good friend who met someone online and eventually married him - moving to his farm and becoming a full fledged farmer's wife - complete with 5am milkings, driving tractor, the whole lot!
best of luck to ya,
Jaz | |

Posted: 12/17/2005 9:50:26 PM | | Well if its a farm in the sense of farming crops and cattle, you are up at 4,and not in bed till 10 or 11 at night, have fun. its not like in the movies there is lots of hard work if you want to be successful. Most wives drive tractor now, so its both of you who are up late and smiling at each other as you drive buy in your tractors. Have fun....one of my sayings, its not really hard work ,you are just not used to working hard. | |

| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 9:55:23 PM | | Well, it sounds kinda romantical, I mean who doesn't love a farm? However, I have always had neighbors close by, and I think being far out in the middle of nowhere would really freak me out. Not to mention having to go 'to town' every time you realized you were low on O.J. | |

| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 10:16:38 PM | Heh, are you kiddin?! I don't know what kind of scale we're tlaking here but assuming it's a general question... my long term goal is to have a small organic farm on a small local island. I'm not interested in anymore animals than sheep and probably chicken. mmmm lamb :D By far THE most efficient animal on the planet. Not only are they addorable alive but you can sheer them, eat them and hello, goat cheese, (mildly different I know, but still the same family.)
Love peace n' chicken grease ;P *~P | |

| How many women would want to live on a farm? Posted: 12/17/2005 11:28:45 PM | man, I freely admit that my ultimate dream is to grow organic produce on a farm, High yield berries and herbs. and make a bit of organic cheese.
But I seriously doubt that there is a chick out there who is made for it. | |
