Quick history, I grew up on a farm here in SE PA. Not enough to keep the kids there so all 4 of us have left and my parents still farm it. Now I collect antique tractors and have a serious itch to hobby farm outside of my engineering day job.
Low and behold, an almost perfect place is up for sale on my way to work every day (I think maybe known to a member on here?). Not enough house though for my family so I'd have to keep my current house/mortgage.

Farming is dying so this sounds like a ludicrous plan on my end.
