Hey, welcome! I'm from Charlottesville, VA but currently living in Somerville, MA. What kind of farm (veggies, animals, seeds)? By the way, feel free to swing by the geohashing IRC channel, there's pretty much always a few people hanging out there. -- Phyzome 16:16, 27 February 2012 (EST)
We're a old-fashioned "diversified" farm: My dad grows a rotation of soybeans, corn, wheat, oats, and fescue (not necessarily in that order)on ~200 acres, but also has a small herd of beef cattle. I raise and maintain a flock of about 200 chickens and ducks, and I sell the eggs for supplemental income. Mom grows a vegetable garden in the summer to "can" veggies for the winter. We work with my uncle who runs a small hog farm, and trade meat and labor with him. On top of all that, we all have public jobs, as well (Dad works at DuPont, Mom is a middle school librarian, and I am a full-time grad student/part-time substitute teacher). -- DynamoNED 17:00, 27 February 2012 (EST)
