Hobby Farm Beginnings: Finding the Inspiration to Start Your Own Family Farm
Hobby farming, also known as sustainable farming or sometimes family farming, can be a great way to explore your personal interest in growing vegetables, raising livestock, or even beekeeping while engaging in a home grown business venture that incorporates family togetherness and quality time as much as building a successful home-based business.
Starting your own hobby farm can begin with something as simple as referencing your personal experiences. Traveling, family history, and even exploring seemingly unrelated hobby interests like cooking or soap making can yield the inspiration to start and run your own hobby farm.
Knowing about cultures and history can also help in guiding your vision. Tracy and David Toth are one couple whose Pennsylvania hobby farm experience was profoundly influenced by a trip out West to the Navajo Nation, where they learned first hand about Navajo-Churro sheep and how and how the Navajo people formed a cultural relationship to the farming of these hearty animals, using the strong and beautiful wool to weave the blankets and rugs the tribe is famous for.

Family Time: Doing Hobbies Together
In today’s fast-paced world, quality time with the family is getting harder to find. It’s difficult enough to find the time to eat dinner together, let alone find the time to do hobbies together. But somehow we manage to find that time, even if it’s just an hour or so each night. Since quality time is so precious, finding the right hobby for the whole family to participate in might be a bit of a trick, but it’s not impossible.
Jigsaw Puzzles
Puzzles are a popular hobby many families enjoy together. Puzzles may not be high tech, but they do foster time for conversation and bonding between family members. First decide whether you want a large puzzle, or a smaller one. Set aside 30-60 minutes each night to sit down and assemble it together. Family members can even work on it when nobody else is around. When it’s finished, glue it together and frame it, or simply take it apart and start all over again another time.
