I'm a farmer now, and it's fantastic. My goal is to be totally self-sufficient and grow everything that I eat. There's something about earning your dinner that's cool.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I love the idea of farm to table and farmer's markets. I enjoy a meal more if I know I'm eating something that's good quality and good for me.
I always wanted to be a farmer. There is a tradition of that in my family.
I love the farm, I love growing stuff.
That's a big goal of mine, to try and grow as much of my own food as possible.
It brings up happy old days when I was only a farmer and not an agriculturist.
I've been trying really hard to be more domesticated. It's not in my nature to clean and cook, and so I've been really good about it.
My dad farmed, my granddad was a farmer. I wanted to be a farmer.
But as a young kid, I never did, really have an ambition to be a farmer. I never thought, gee, I would like to farm, and I want to raise these crops. I didn't quite know what I wanted to do.
I grow my own vegetables and herbs. I like being able to tell people that the lunch I'm serving started out as a seed in my yard.
I'm glad I don't have to make a living farming. Too much hard work. Too many variables you don't have control over, like, is it going to rain? All I can say is, god bless the real farmers out there.
