We are would love to have a hobby farm someday. Land is pretty scarce and expensive where we live, so we will keep looking. I enjoyed reading your blog. I think it is very helpful to get an insiders experience of what living on the farm is really like. The pictures are great too! We will be going to a rodeo on July 4th located in a small town. It is got to be one of the best ways to celebrate. They have a hometown parade in the morning, then you head off to the rodeo, and at night they have fireworks at the local high school. We will pray for rain for your parts. Take care and God Bless! MB (John 3:16-21) Thank you for sharing your stories on line. We are would love to have a hobby farm someday.

Some of the recyclers grind the tires for reuse in making asphalt and other building materials, others resell the ground tires to power plants to be burned with coal in power plants. The big problem is the old gentleman might have to pay for removal and disposal. Missouri has had a five dollar per tire disposal fee for years. This fee is supposed to go towards the removal and clean up of unlicensed tire dumps, your friend might check to see if Iowa has a similiar law and program. (Since the owner is unable to care for the property and is in the process of selling the farm, he might qualify for state assistance. Only problem is he could also face fines for maintaining an unlicensed tire dump. Since your friend is the old gentleman's attorney he could broker some sort of deal with the state and prosecuting attorney's office to avoid criminal penalties.) Kevin Judy,

Found your pages and wow, it's all I can say! Your certainly living our family's dream. We are "practicing" farming here in mid Michigan. Hope to someday (please Lord soon) have our own plotch of land. Right now its hogs for Fair, and chickens. Meatbirds and layers. Our garden isn't doing so hot either. It has to be the serious lack of rain. I'm trying to remain optimistic! Keep the Faith! Hi! Found your pages and wow, it’s all I can say!

These need to be disposed of before the farm can be sold. I was told there is a company in Decatur, IL that is burning tires for their energy supply -- do you know if it is Archer Daniels Midland? If so, do you know a contact name/number to inquire of their interest in approx. 3 semi-loads of rubber tires? If not this company, any company? Any help is greatly appreciated. (send to jmatloc2@kennesaw.edu) I grew up on a 147-acre farm in northeast IA and love the memories. In my search to help our friend, I came across your blog. Loved it!
