Hello Craig, thanks for the suggestions.
After completing the Southern IL Food Network's Farm Beginnings course, my lady and I began to look for land here in earnest. At which point, I was bribed by my family with 10 FREE!!! acres. With the option of buying another contiguous 10 acres each year, to the limit of 160 acres. So as soon as I graduate (and sell my trailer) we're packing up the family and headed south.
