I'm 26 and did inherit part of the farm (1/5 of it) when my grandma died 8 years ago. It was willed to my 4 brothers and myself, even though my parents still farm it and milk the cows.
My dad still runs the farm, and I'm there just about every weekend during the spring/summer/fall months and try to go out a couple times a month during the winter. I fix most of the equipment myself, as my day job is a machinist. The hame farm has been in the family for well over 150 years, but unfortunately it's years are numbered. I'm the only one who wants to farm, and the city is pushing against us, and all around us.
I do however have intentions of buying the farm and 80 acres where I currently live, 13 or so miles from home. My neighbor who still owns the barn and land raises beef in 2 barns, and he's in his late 70's. Hoping we can get our other finances cleaned up enough so when the day comes, we can make an honest go of it and not have to worry about another mortgage.
Can only hope that my kids will have an interest. So far I've only got my 6 month old son, but hope that he takes a shine to it like I did.
