I'm the third and last generation farming this place part-time, I prefer the term Fetish Farming rather than Hobby Farming, this is far more painful and more expensive than a hobby should be...

I own 50 acres, 9 in Concord grapes grown for Welch's, the rest in open fields and pastures. I buy a new "crop" of 500 pound calves each spring and fatten them for freezer beef over the winter with corn, beans and hay we grow on our place. I also "rent" about 25 acres of small plots for hay from neighbors, most of it rent free to keep the fields mown clean and in use.

I have tractors from 1950 to 1995 currently in use some form, some daily, the 1989 2355N gets about 300 hours per year in the grapes.
