I live in KY which unfortunately is known for farming tobacco.
-
I live in a residential area, but there are "Farmer's Markets" around in the summertime, plus I love to garden, but have not had much luck with too many vegetables. Mainly grow tomatoes in large pots.
-
Ehh, there are a ton of farms in this area, but I don't know if it is considered a farming state. Currently we have a small garden but we don't really do much with it, mostly just tomatoes.
-
Yes, live in a farming state, own a farm but it is worked by lesses

My grandparents always had a huge garden and pappaw had every fruit imaginable. Of course it took years to get to what it was when I was a kid. Maybe if I ever have grand kids they can get some blue berries off these stupid little shurbs that seem to not be growing that I planted. I might get 4 or 5 berries off the 6 trees I have. lol. We have however got a few figs off the fig trees.

I used to live in WA and I worked on a flower bulb farm. Best job I ever had, sure do miss it! Now I live in the desert. No farms around here. Though I'm thinking about trying to start a little indoor garden. Hopefully I get figure it out :)
-
I live in RI and there are not a lot of farms here anymore. We used to have lots of dairy farms but most of them are gone now. It's sad to see the farms go. Most people don't want the work or to be tied down.

I live in southwestern Minnesota in a small rural town. Farms are all around! Corn, soybeans are the main crops. Many farmers are also big hog farmers.
-
We have a garden back in our back rard. We grow some onion, and mint, and tomatoes.

Live on a farm Have a garden every year. As I get older hope to do more raised boxes.
-
I live in Eastern Washington which is a rural area and farming is the way of life for most of the area. There are fruits and vegetable stands almost everywhere you go. And don't forget those tobacco too. Livestock etc. etc. I had an outside garden last year and am looking forward to a new one this year.
-
yes live in KY HAVE A Small garden for tomatoes
-
there is a lot of farm land where I live but it is mostly feed crops. That is when we have water. But brother has two large green house. Get a lot of my produce from them. Also we have a farmers market here in the summer too. Plus a distribution center that we can good quality veg. and fruits from. I also grow a few tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. Nothing like going outside and picking really fresh veggies.
-
I don't have a garden, but we're hoping to start one this year. Looking forward to some delicious veggies.
-
I live in the great state of Texas where farming and ranching are very prominent. I live in the country and I always have a garden. There's nothing better than fresh grown vegetables. And there's many acres of corn crops all around where I live.
-
We always have a small garden at our house, just for fun and for getting a few fresh vegetables. I live in Middle Tennessee and there are farms all around us. One side note-- we just got back from a trip to Panama City Beach, Florida, where my daughter's band was playing for the Spring Break crowd. Thousands of college kids had flocked to the beach to celebrate. As an older couple, my husband and I stood out like sore thumbs, but a lot of the kids tried to strike up a conversation with us. My husband would ask what school they go to. We were surprised at how many said, "Oh, I don't go to school. I'm a farmer." So yes, even farmers take a Spring Break to have some fun!

I grew up on a dairy farm (Wisconsin)
My mother always had a large garden for vegetables which I help weed.
But since then I moved to NJ (Garden State), but never had a garden (flowers or veggies)
-
Yes I live in a farming area,but I don't farm myself and no I don't do gardening,could never get into that :rose:

Farming is hard work. You have to love it to keep at it everyday. But then again somebody has to do it to produce all the veggies etc. that we have on our tables.
-
