minus-squareHule@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·1 year agoI have around 15 acres I work on. Mostly alone, with a tractor. I have let parts of it go wild. I quit my day job, I have a sick father and brother to take care of. Yes, farming is really hard work, and animals need attention all the time. My farm isn’t making me any money, I get some subsidies though. But my fruit trees are over an acre. I keep ducks, pigs and sheep. I have a woodlot. It all makes me happy, that’s why I do it. We still buy groceries, we could go 3 months without that. But I’m not a prepper.
