It would be a fun vacation either way. NH has been doing it’s thing for a long time so it can be pretty tough to break into especially in the ag scene. Another option instead of “buying the farm” would be to move up and work as a day laborer on one of the bigger farms to build a network and get a first hand feel for a while. Best case you love it and figure out a way to be an owner-operator. Worst case you hate it and then you haven’t sunk your egg in a basket you don’t like.
