That may have happened and have been possible in 1900, but I grew up in a farming family and there is no way any farming people who wish to be profitable and have a good business do this today.
Today it's more like you have a job for year round income like hardwood flooring or whatever and then in the Summer you have 2 jobs: whatever job you have year round and then your additional farming work.
- maxawaytoolong 16y agoI guess it depends on what you are farming. Where I grew up the farmers grew commodity crops like wheat and soybeans and did mostly take the winter off. Sometimes they'd have a 2nd job as a pee-wee hockey coach or something like that.
