I worked on a farm for a little bit.

I have a farm and I love it there. There's really nothing to do, but even watching the chickens, its fun.

Too often, parents whose children express an interest in farming squelch it because they envision dirt, dust, poverty, and hermit living. But great stories come out of great farming.

I thought I might like to farm. But I didn't know the economics of it. Teachers basically steered me away from it.

It has long been a childhood dream of mine to have a farm.

I - I try to do as much as I can, wherever I am. So, at the farm, I'm always thinking of some new project, some new thing I can do.

My family and I reside on a non-working farm, although we have a couple of horses and the usual stuff like pigs, cows, and chickens. We really don't have an honest-to-goodness farm, more of a hobby farm.

As a farm girl, even when I was quite young, I had my 'farm chores' - but I had time also to be alone, to explore the fields, woods and creek side. And to read.

I tried for a while to be an agricultural worker and was hopelessly bored. I would stand around in heaps of manure and sing about the beauty of the work I wasn't doing.

Running a farm is about solving a problem, and that's always interesting to me. But it's a constant process.
