Excerpt from How to Choose a Farm With a Discussion of American Lands IF the people of America should stop acquiring land, in one generation no land would be owned therein. Probably all the land changes hands by purchase, gift or inheritance, on an average, at least three times in a century. Since comparatively little farm land is held by corporations, this change of ownership involves usually a distinct change in management. There is, perhaps, on this account less continuity of effort in farm enterprises than in other industries. The laws of inheritance, combined with other factors, tend rather to bring the land into the general market than to maintain it within the family circle. The result is that land is constantly coming on the market in old and well-settled regions as well as in the newer and less developed parts of the country.

A totally modern, all-purpose handbook for today’s agricultural dreamers—covering the challenges and triumphs of launching any successful farm—from two leading lights in sustainable farming Do you dream of starting your own farm but wonder where to begin? Or do you already have a farm but wish to become more sustainable to compete in today’s market? Start Your Farm, the first comprehensive business guide of its kind, covers these essential questions and more: Why be a farmer in the 21st century? Do you have what it takes? What does sustainable really mean, and how can a small (as little as one acre) to midsize farm survive alongside commodity-scale agriculture? How do you access education, land, and other needs with limited capital? How can you reap an actual profit, including a return on land investment? How do you build connections with employees, colleagues, and customers? At the end of the day, how do you measure success? (Hint: Cash your lifestyle paycheck.) More than a practical guide, Start Your Farm is a hopeful call to action for anyone who aspires to grow wholesome, environmentally sustainable food for a living. Take it from Forrest Pritchard and Ellen Polishuk: Making this dream a reality is not for the faint of heart, but it’s well within reach—and there’s no greater satisfaction under the sun!
