"Growing up on a farm" can have vastly different meanings across places - from living next to an industrial-scale operation to an idyllic, quiet small farm surrounded by nature.
- JackFr 6y ago> an idyllic, quiet small farm surrounded by nature. That sounds more like a country house — or a tax dodge— than it does a working farm.
- ricardobeat 6y agoWell, that goes to show it. Not every country has gotten rid of small-scale family farms. I used to visit a place just like that in Brazil, and a friend's parents also still live in such a setting in France.
- mikeg8 6y agoThere has been an incredible resurgence of small scale farms, in the range of 40-300 acres, that are a combo of country house and working farm. Some are capable of feeding thousands of community families. Not all food comes from industry.
