My wife and I both grew up on farms—me on my parents' dairy farm, where I developed a strong work ethic from early mornings and hands-on work—and we've always dreamed of having our own operation. Right now, we're renting a house and barn near Meaford, with space for a few calves and chickens. We pay $2,300/month on time every month and can provide references or payment documentation to prove our reliability.
Our current property was recently sold, with new owners planning to move in, so we have about two years before we need to relocate. That's why we're searching now for a retiring owner or someone unable to manage daily operations, who would prefer their land stay a productive working farm rather than become recreational or hobby property.
I work full-time in metal fabrication, with solid mechanical skills in welding, building, and repairs. Long-term, I'd like to farm full-time while offering fabrication services to local farmers and businesses from the property—custom gates, equipment fixes, etc.—to add value and keep things running smoothly.
Our family is rooted here—kids in local schools, activities, and community—and our son is already passionate about farming and eager to continue the tradition. We're interested in renting the full farm (house, barn, land) or exploring rent-to-own, with a commitment to maintaining and improving it for generations.
If this sounds like a good match and you'd like to keep your farm in agriculture, please give me a call. Happy to meet, shake your hand, discuss terms, and answer questions.
