Hi Larry,

We would love to swing by for a visit. We may be in your very neck of the woods this coming weekend (3/16-3/17) if you are around. Sorry ’bout the short notice.

Could you email me your contact info?

Thanks!

Hi Eric,

That’s a great area to search, especially up near Lake George.

In answer to your question, we both have full time jobs. I work from home and Jill has a publishing job about a half hour away.

Farming is a hobby and educational experience for us, but we’re always scheming ways to transition at least part time to farming.

You’re welcome to stop by for a visit. Good luck on your puzzle pieces.

Hi Guys,

My girlfriend just found your blog and we’ve been researching almost identically what you have accomplished. The blog has been great. We are currently looking for property in that stretch of NY between Albany and Lake George. I spent many weekends of my childhood in the Catskills.

If I may ask, what do you do for income? Do you have adequate savings you lean on until the farm is up and running (if you plan to make it a profitable venture)? It’s all like a puzzle to us and we’re trying to find and make pieces fit.

Any info would be helpful.

Thanks!

Eric

Just wanted to pass along this link to an awesome blog. Eric Sandeen has been doing some excellent work tracking and plotting energy use. Wish I’d found his site earlier. http://sandeen.net/wordpress/energy/therms-per-heating-degree-day/

eMonitor. I use it to monitor total power use, solar and 7 circuits.
