im 24 and might inherit a farm and house soon, what do i do with it? it used to have horses, cows, chickens, etc, they grew crops in a greenhouse, huge storage barn for machines, several garages for cars, a cabin to rent out for tourists (we get a lot of tourists here in the summer)
my grandparents own it, but they are getting old and cant take care of it anymore, they said they are thinking of selling it but offered i take it instead. they estimate they might live there for 1 to 7 more years before they sell it or give it to me. i have 0 farming experience but im willing to learn, i'd probably start off with something easy (chickens?), i love cats so maybe i could be a cat breeder? not sure how economically viable that is. or maybe i just live there and look for a job

I would suggest living there and learning from them while they're still around to teach you

>cat breeder
Cats are EVERYWHERE and sell for nothing. You would be broke in no time. Don't do that. Open a cat daycare/petting zoo or something if you have to.

Farming is a job, owning a farm is a business. You don't have to be a farmer to own a farm, and I'd advise you start with that as your basis for how you're planning on making it work.Step zero is this

Depends on your country and financial situation. Living purely off it is hard no matter what. You really need a big big place for it work as a business. Modern farmers, at least in Norway make it by being entrepreneurs, that just does a lot of shit (probably the same in the west in general) and having things paid down. Working a job, and then trying to accommodate side hustles via your farms is probably generally the best bet, but again depend on legal stuff. You might be bound legally to grow or work there.Also important to underscore the side hustle and entrepreneurship. What a lot of people don't understand nowadays, that land in of itself opens a lot of doors in doing whatever. Having a big workshop or barn you can do whatever has a lot of value.You need to hink like a business even if its just part time. Think about old timers and their houses and property. The family homes was run like a business. How might that look. Well you are actively using the space. Space is money, especially today with warehousing. Growing food obviously. How you store things is important. But things that we have forgotten is hilbilly stuff like eggshells --> cement and high emissivity paint. Aluminium --> all kind of shit --> aluminium oxide --> all kinds of shit. Biogas. Solar now --> opens a lot of doors obviously. oil/fats --> energy. Leftover fermentation --> alcohol. Any kind of transparant stuff or tubing has value once you become a maker. Sun becomes real estate for growing. Carpentry is a must, because space efficiency is a must, and people are extremely lazy about maximizing storage space nowadays. It sounds hillbilly and hippy, but this is just circular shit we all did back in the day. You don't need to do all this stuff, but so many have a bad mindset which ends in failure.For growing, start doing research now on the stuff that takes time to grow, IE perennials, trees etc. Annual stuff is easy. You need 1 year to set up the farm(infrastructure).
