You mentioned "a passion" for farming. I'd say that is the most important ingredient, because if you don't have the passion, then all the distractions and set-backs become monumental. Lots of the younger generation are working out and farming what they can in their off time. Several reasons, one of which includs family medical insurance cost. Another reason is that your very existence doesn't hinge on whether you have a good year or not. Many farms struggle to break even, and hope for that one bumper year out of ten to make it so to speak. My suggestion is that if you want to test the waters, hire yourself out to a farmer in the spring and fall and see if after a season or two the passion is still there, but by all means, keep your day job. Farming can be very rewarding, and is certainly food for the soul, but reality can be cruel at times. I am semi-retired and work for my cousin who farms around 3,500 acres. The best thing for me is that I don't have to deal with the business aspect, just operating the equipment, and working on the machinery. This satisfies my passion, and I still keep another part time job to take care of my insurance needs, and support my hobby's. I know this is off subject, but those who have come to know me here already know that....I may comment on a comment, not just the original subject.
