- Let me explain how to find a farm on the Internet. We found our farm and homestead by searching the internet back in 2016. Let me explain what we looked for when we were buying land and the things you should consider if you want to find a farm on the Internet.

About Gold Shaw Farm: Gold Shaw Farm is more of a farm-in-progress than an honest-to-goodness farm. Our dream is that someday we are able to transform our 150+ acre parcel of land into a regenerative and productive homestead and farm.
I’m 16 and I have 4 ducks and about 8 eggs being incubated rn, all in my parents backyard in the city. I dream to have my own farm one day with a lot more ducks like yours.
I hope you get to follow your dreams. A lot of people get sidetracked when they're young and then have to wait a long time to pursue their dreams. Don't let people talk you out of things you love to do.
Rudi Becerra Hell yeah go for it
I am 32 and planing to buy a fam in next 8 years. Save money and there is always something out there.
The world needs more farmers!
Rudi, do it. Buy a farm somewhere if you can afford it. Buy the land at least. If you don’t do it you might be sucked into the rat race and you will regret it at about 30yo.
Love this video! My husband and I spent so long looking for a property. We didn't want a huge farm, we wanted to be close enough to the city, we needed enough rooms for our kids. Looking was so frustrating. I had no idea it would feel so exhausting and like an uphill battle. Then one day we came across the perfect property. It was vacant and overgrown for 2 years and the interior walls of the home were all bright green but with a lot of hard work(and paint) it's now our paradise! We now run a small animal sanctuary :)
That is wonderful. Everything works itself out. We are in the first steps of buying land, it seems so out of reach, but one day we will look back at these times. We congratulate you! 🙏🏼
Do you have a channel?
Would love to see ur work.
You r living my dream. Happy wishes Do u have a channel
I'm from a very rural part of Alabama. I strongly support buying property that has a conservation easement. Even in these very rural areas lots of farm land is being lost to building subdivisions. Even if the land isn't conserved when you buy it get it into one will mean the land has to stay rural even after you're gone.
Also please do go and explore the community. Nothing is worse than not liking the people you live around. Also make sure your planned operation won't run afoul of any local laws/ordinances. The county I'm from is dry so the guy who tried to open a winery ran into some issues, hard to give a winery tour when it can't end with samples.
We just found & purchased our 10acres of land. Started on the internet searching for what we wanted & saw it in person & fell in love with it.
Congrats, that is great! 🙏🏼
Finding the farm was easy for me. its been in the family since 1836 Sam Houston gave it to my 8th grandfather for fighting in the battle of San Jacinto :)
So cool! Lived in Houston all my life so I love hearing cool Sam Houston facts lol.
my farms got a texas kinda name, but named for the relations that stayed behind when austin and bryan left potosi mo to mine texas and build on yet more spanish grants after they had to run from some debt. thats ferneau bryan's chicken farm. bryan texas was named for the son of james bryan (austins right hand man).
And now you’re crying about “illegals” on land your grandpa and Houston stole. Pathetic. Don’t be mad when God judges you.
@@Graeberwave I dont care about immigration legal or otherwise
My great-grandpa was a slave trader. We lost everything):
" I found it the same way I found my wife, on the internet!" I laughed wayyyyyy too hard I love you Morgan
Thanks!
@@GoldShawFarm totally choked on my coffee.🤣🤣🤣
Bringing up the region you want to live in is so important. My husband and I both grew up in the Midwest (Illinois for him and Ohio for me). We lived in the South for a few years after we were married, and it hard getting used to the cultural differences and feeling like we were part of the community. We ended up moving back to Ohio after six years, and decided that we are just Children of the Corn. LOL
how corny !
@@angelamarie4137 I think Dave was just joking
@@davelawson2564 omg...I am losing my mind it took me 2 days to get the joke. Hahahahhaha!
I tried growing corn in my backyard in VaBch. I gave up when a huricane blew it all over just at tassel. I grew up running through misouri sweet corn. I loved it. I'm in FL now and wouldn't dream of trying corn.
Welcome back!
First minute of Toby Dog is an auto-like
I just came here because of the cute ducks. :)
Right!!
what kind of dog is he?
v
@@Summability52 He's a Maremmano-Abruzzese Sheepdog aka Maremma Sheepdog.
WONDERFUL INFORMATION!!!!!
We are looking for property to move to. We have been looking over a year. But being seniors,our ideas have changed...from 10-20+ acres to
2-5. As you get older ones body changes. Raising cattle and chickens, goes to chickens would be easier.🙄
Thank you for sharing great information,worth listing to!!
Nancy Litton, 2-5 acres is perfect for a small homestead. Chickens for eggs, manure and eating leftovers that have gone bad. Enough room for your veggies and berry bushes. Some space for privacy and get to know your neighbors. Good luck. Water is mandatory of course, and solar backup may be the way to go in case of power failures.
My wife and I will help out! Under one circumstance, we teach others!
@Nancy Litton So how's it going?
@@g.cosper8306 unfortunately it's not looking good. Both of us have been sick and have had some personal problems. Thanks for asking.
@@nancylitton390 I'm sorry to hear. :( Namaste
Thank you for this video. My husband and I are in the process of doing this right now; pulling up stakes in a city (Houston) and moving somewhere that is not urban and not hot (Northwest Michigan...the pinky part of the map.) I've always wanted to have a farm of my own, having grown up in a family of farmers with the father and mother who took the suburban business person route. You provided the perspective of someone who has already done it and that was very helpful and insightful.
You’re welcome! Good luck with your search.
"ON THE INTERNET" 😂😂😂
"Dad how'd you meet mom?"
"I swiped right son."
hahahha
I met my fiance playing games on discord >_
@@LmaoMoni Your love started with discord. Sounds poetic.
Lol
I really like the pond, been waiting since winter to observe it filling up
Endless opportunities, peace, serenity and getting to know/love for your neighbours, off to a great start once you buy your first farm. (And of course a great dog like Toby! )
Wow. Congrats old DC resident. You all look pretty happy.
Well thought out. You put it all out there, in an easy format, and even included time! Well done. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
I loved this video. Very much. I grew up on a farm. Not huge, only 68 acres. You two are truly blessed to own such a gorgeous piece of property.
I love it. He’s grown from being able to feed all his chickens from the grain that fills a large soda cup to needing a five gallon bucket of feed to pour into several feed bowls.
Yep
Great direction!
I went onto Zillow keyed in 10 +Acres with a mortgage of $200 a month and found my homestead!
Really?? That’s almost hard to believe!
@@floridafreeliving yep! The truth! God is so good!
@@FarmerC.J. 🙏🏼 Best of abundance to you!
@@FarmerC.J. Praise the LORD!!!
@@CalledUntoHoliness AMEN and ALWAYS !❤️✝️🙏
Toby is getting bigger isn't he? Yes, community is super important when relocating. You make the most beautiful videos - great content, music and editing! Thanks for posting!
I used to live in DC also! Still work remotely for the same organization, but I now live in the greater Pittsburgh area and my partner and I are contemplating buying land a bit further out from the city, just to live a bit more of a self-sufficient life. It's so inspiring to see someone who's done it - thank you for sharing!
As a former Realtor, you offered very sound advice for buyers looking to purchase any real estate property. Thanx!
This was a great tutorial on purchasing a farm or farmland. So many points to consider instead of How much is it? This is going to be so helpful to many young folks looking for a slower paced life style. Maybe that is not the right words, but away from the rat race so to speak. It is also good to know in your own heart and mind "do I have the self discipline" for this kind of life, because it is a full time job, not fr the faint of heart. Thanks for sharing your wisdom and have a Blessed day.
Lots of great tips! Having a list of wants and then distilling that down to “needs” was a huge help for us when we were looking for our land.
I've always been going on about farms since i was little. Now that I'm older it's just something I've always wanted from life and it would be a great way to be a little more self sufficient. I remember thinking when the lockdown happened; "man people who laughed at homesteaders are probably eating those words now.." Just a simple life with me, potential future hubbers, some animals, a garden and of course some kiddos.
but right now I'm waiting to hear back from publix so i can land a full time job to support me and the four backyard chickens i plan on getting.
baby steps.
You're totally right. It takes small steps, hard work and patience. If you keep that up, you'll get there eventually!
I'm the same. I spent some time on my grandparents farm as a kid and it's been my goal since.
@@GoldShawFarm already getting close! i got the job! had my first day of training thursday
I'm 26 and I think finding a wife would be much harder than finding a farm.
Lol
Buy the farm! It will attract the right woman!
@@ghostofmarcusg lol
James Merone my son is 25. He cant find a conservative hard working woman
ghostofmarcusg oh crap. My son has a farm. Cant find anyone
What a lovey, dovey, doggie Tobi is!😊❤
Always great choices of music when you edit. Not the regular sounding TH-cam genre. Adorable matches of music compositions to paint a perky unusual farm setting.
As a young, dreaming New Englander who wants to try to live off the land, I really appreciate this video
Your dog is so cute and fluffy! And I would love a guardian dog on our future homestead.
It’s sad that most people will never have the money to do what you guys have. I’m sure you’ve worked your butts off but you’re privileged to be in the position you are. It’s nice to see how gracious and appreciative you are. Just keep in mind, for most people this will never be possible. Nonetheless you’re so positive and incredibly encouraging.
There’s so call privilege came from working really hard and saving money for a long period of time and being frugal. Having a dream involves a lot of hard work and doing with a lot less than others… has nothing to do with privilege.
Good Morning Mr. Gold. I enjoy seeing Toby first thing!
Restoring that barn is a huge task. I wonder if there is any help you could get. Maybe a college program that could send you students to help for credit or a fund you could tap into for expenses related to the materials you need. You have a beautiful property and I am so glad you guys found such a nice fit.
Morgan, I turned this on 29 minutes after it was posted. I have to say I think it is the best video you've done. I really enjoy watching your videos. But I think this one is truly outstanding. I was the oldest son on family farm and I remember all the hard work we did. We had a lot of fun but there were definitely times when life there was nothing like the movie nostalgia or everything was wonderful. There were some really hard times and a lot of hard work. Your information on this video was excellent. I'm now 71, live in a neighborhood with friends all up and down our street, have been retired for a number of years and loving the life I'm living now. If I have learned one thing - it's that your guidance in this video is the absolute best. Keep up the good work.
It was easy to find our farm. It has been passed down in my husband's family sine 1681, it was our turn in 2018 to take over, so we left the big city. My hubby is the 13th generation here. 😊
The farm still goes under it's original name.
Don’t give up dude. I like your attitude and your philosophy. That is your own slice of heaven, don’t ever forget that. I hope for you to succeed. The small insignificant fact that you’ve acquired some haters is just proof, I think, that you are onto something special. Hold onto what you love with a healthy yet tender grip.
This was incredibly helpful, thank you so much for sharing! My partner and I are dead set on moving to Vermont and planning to rent for a year so we can take our time exploring the different areas and communities. We both have full time remote jobs but big ambitions as well to be as self sustaining as possible and leave something solid for our children to thrive on when we're gone. You've given us quite a few resources to look into. Thank you!!
You guys are lucky to have such spaces. We lost all our farms when the government passed land ceiling act. An individual cannot own more than 25 acres. Anything more gets expropriated (without compensation) by the government. My forefathers challenged these laws in court..lost all the cases and the farm.
It can be very hard to find arable land in other parts of the country. Where I am in Nevada even if you can find land to farm on you'll be fighting over water rights or paying 50k to dig a well though our rock layers, assuming there's ground water at all. As far as state laws, building regulations, and taxes NV is top tier compared to California next door. The conflictions for me are endless, but I love the inspiration you guys provide over there in Vermont.
These lessons will also work for other properties. I think you got a diamond in the rough. Beautiful
Have to laugh. Two of the properties you had when you were zooming thru the listings were down the road from me. Southern Vermont is a wonderful place to live!
You’ve truly motivated me to be more self sufficient
Ooh I will have to check land trusts. We are moving to Kansas when I finish my PhD (2 years away yet) and I want to actually have some property/farm land when we get up there. I still don't know what the rules will be for me keeping livestock other than my horse (I research transboundary animal diseases, mostly of livestock) but I want to have enough for a *huge* food garden. This will help my search considerably - Thank you!
Good luck!
What is your PHD program?
I am a retired Psychiatrist (MD), Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society lifetime member. Are you studying agricultural aspects of food production? Nutrition always had interested me and I knew far more than my AMA 3 hour course (note not credit hour but literally 3 hours only) schooling offered me. Want a diet? See a chef bc they get more nutritional classes that even a dietitian and can tailor that diet to your liver enzymes. The AMA-FDA COMPLEX often frustrates me. Power & wealth is their goal not health!!!!!!
Yes, land trusts may be a game changer!
@@barbarahouk1983 sorry just saw this. I'm doing a PhD in veterinary pathology, focusing on Transboundary Animal Diseases and keeping our livestock safe from economically important viruses. I've had my DVM about 10 years now and wanted to expand my education.
Great video- but how about a follow up as to how you met your wife on the internet? I would luv to know that back story; I haven't had much luck looking (maybe because I'm retired). But to find someone who was willing to start an entirely different lifestyle with you, is so wonderful! Thank you for sharing your days with us; I miss rural New England very much, and sharing your farm and the small town you're in, is like being back home for a little bit.
I found a good sized, 30 acre apple orchard in upstate NY, CHEAP im the want ads in the paper! Too far, too cold but what a cool opportunity had we been a little younger. GREAT VIDEO !
That sounds awesome! Definitely a bit cold, but preservation could become a hobby 😁
Oh my goodness ! Thank you soooo much ! I just found your page when i saw you on the Hollars farm.! The details of your videos are perfect !!! Thanks again, for this info ! Keep them coming, pleases.
I hope your trees start growing faster! Would love to see the landscape you have in mind begin to appear.
After years of city living, my husband and I both have come around to the idea that we'd like to go back to our roots. He grew up helping with his grandparents farm, and I grew up in a small town surrounded by farms. Now we're expecting our second child, and with that along with the pandemic, it's really put some pressure on us to get to where we want to be. We've actually found a couple of places that would work, but now we're just waiting for our finances to get in line. I'm hoping that by the new year we'll be able to have a farm to call home =)
This is definitely a subject that is on my mind. Thanks for your input!
I didn't buy a farm, but I did buy a vintage airstream trailer. I went through the same process of distilling my goals, needs and wants; figuring out the market I was searching in; etc. It took me two years of searching and saving and near misses before the right purchase came up, and by that time I had almost given up. But I didn't know when I'd ever get the opportunity again, so I jumped on it. I'm still working on renovating that trailer four years later, mostly because the more I learn about the trailer and myself, the more I'm willing to take things apart in order to truly make things better, or do a more complete job that will last longer. But it's worth it, because I know my trailer retains a lot of value in the market and it's the perfect size for me.
Yes, your ideas are sound. As a retired Psychiatrist, I really think all of this is good advice for those who want to enter the farming industry. We need farming families like you. The last comment brought the “artistry” into the business. Human endeavors require mind body and soul and this is true whether one is religious or not. A human in an individual that is more than a machine. The mind is a function of the brain and it is spiritual bc the mind is a product of the brain’s marvelous capabilities of integration. This complexity is called the Human Condition. Satisfying the Human Condition brings joy to life and usually success in most endeavors, especially if one has little intrusion via governments.
I do wish you peace and good health now and in the years to come (especially in these times of our local, state and federal governments overreach crazy behaviors).
Your farm story is one Grandpa's death short of the Stardew Valley intro. Love your videos, have a great day!
In my country (Bulgaria), due to depopulation, you can find big plots of land for the fraction of the price in the states, heck, there are even houses for, like, 100 bucks, and the land is good, most things can grow here. But there is just no one interested in them, since many are located in deserted villages in poor regions, with bad road connections, people are not feeling financially secure about making such a step, or just want the big city life. It is a shame, really. At least foreigners are interested in them, but most of them are retired westerners, which want humble calm life, no one wants to make a farm.

Yeah, if family wasn’t a factor...I totally would consider that. Germany is just so freaking expensive...I can’t even afford a 2 room flat, let alone a plot of land, in the area I live. But what can you do? It’s a damn shame.
Lol we have that in the us, we call it Detroit.
Thank you for this information. My family is originally from the Balkans, and I am thinking of possibly moving to that area at some point. I would love to run an animal rescue. You’ve given me a lot to think about.😊🌸
@snmEli lo leave
@@raraavis7782 I personally think taxation there is the real problem and buying property in the right spots isn't expensive at all, except you want to live urban
Watching from Brazil
These videos are incredibly helpful even though I'm not looking to do anything close to this scale(yet)...I'm actually going to be a first time home owner I'm just looking for a few acres to raise small livestock for myself on while continuing my day job. Thanks for all of the inspiring and informative content!
Im 25 and bought 11 acres in Vermont too! We are a fully remote work couple wanted to go back to Vermont (we went to college there). Got land and looked to build a home and they wanted 500k for a garage a small apartment above!!!... so we are now about to close on a house an hour south of where we bought land. It has 4 acres and is a full on house for half the cost!! hoping to get out there in December and start a small farm in the spring. Hate all the plastic, chemicals, and torture that our food is exposed to and I want something better for myself family and community.
Tysm for the talking about how u bought u farm
You’re speaking wisdom…thank you for sharing
that pond turned out so nice. Love the walk for Toby in the morning.
Awesome video. I was hoping you had won Allison in a poker bet that would of made it pretty funny
Also, if you are considering a small farm, many towns place a lot of restrictions on what you can do on your land. They might not let you raise any animals. They might restrict how many outbuildings you can have. Some states and some towns, are generally more friendly towards agriculture. There tends to be less restrictions when you have a lot of land. It’s exhausting, but read the zoning laws for the town you are considering. States also handle things very differently. If you make over 15K a year in gross sales on your farm in CT, you might qualify for a property tax discount, on the other hand, agricultural land in NH is taxed at a higher rate. It’s really amazing when you stop to consider everything, how much each state is like a different country!
Your process sounds a lot like what I did, except I was only looking for 5-10 acres. The funny thing is that after all that searching and comparing, even after going there and getting it inspected, what you know before you buy is just the tip of the iceberg and then you have to hang on and live and learn and hope! 😂
Morgan, I enjoy your videos so much, you do a great job.
I share them with my daughter and her family as they are in a search as well. My husband and I have that " one mind" thinking about our lives. It is a blessing to have.
You and your lovely wife make a great team. Best Wishes

You are totally amazeballs. Love ur passion for everything in life
I just think Morgan is great, I really look up to him and love to hear what he has to say and learn so much from him. Just want to say thank you to him for all he has to share. Just awsome! Keep up the good work.
Awesome job of laying out the whole process. The alternative is buyers remorse! Love your channel, brightens my day here at senior housing in NJ. You are a great story teller. My crystal ball says that someday you can exchange corporate for it! LOL
You are one of the Very Few people who knows how to pronounce Realtor!
Northern Vermont woah I grew up in BTV then South Burlington. I have a lot of friends and family throughout the heros, Milton, winooski, fairfax and all of that. Man I miss it up there. The air is different. Better.
Great information and tips in this video. Thanks, confirms that I am searching for my next land purchase correctly, too bad I am narrowed down enough on my searches to not have a lot to look at right now...hoping more will come on the market once the quarantines are lifted
Best of luck!
Just watched Ben @VW Family Farm open your duck hatching eggs and he & Andrea were saying what a great story teller you are. “I found my farm the same way I found my wife...on the internet”🤣
We lived in DC too, 2003 across from the Zebra lounge on Wis, also looked into northern kingdom VT, loved the weather-taxes not so much. We ended up in WV, still too close to DC, but it's like another world here.
Always make sure you are completely comfortable with the climate. Northern Vermont means six months of cold weather. Animals need open water and that means you outside making sure they have it.
"Oh my sweet summer child"..... 🤣🤣🤣
I am DEAD, Mr. Gold. You use the greatest clips.
Hi...... Gold Shaw Farm, thank you for sharing your video homestead chicken farmer garden 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 bye 👋 🎥👍👍👍
I thought when you were holding the rock , switch to a garden statue and say “ like I did”! 😁 thanks for the information
Same idea I have. Moving to the country (Vermont is one definite location for us too), starting a farm, getting out of an office job. Lots of similarities. Seems like it's working out well. I just need to work a couple more years and then I can finally get out to the country.
I have a small 49 acre farm for sale near Abingdon/Saltville Virginia. Has a 1929 farm house. 4 out buildings. 2 hayfields. Big ridge. 12 acres of woods. 2 springs. Beautiful area.
@@winterszhuzhupets2 It was in my family.
I want to do something else now.
Your video is inspiring and awesome thanks for sharing.
Morgan, Very practical advice. Get on the ground and have a look at what is on either side of the photographs you have seen and also what is behind the camera. Eye-opener! Regards Stephen.
It's always good to see Toby...Put's a smile on my face every time.....Ha!
Hopefully this works in the uk I want to get a farm when I leave school.
Diamond Vortex im doing the same mate but I’m going to the army first
Oi mate move to Australia and be a sand farmer! Coal is our corn, and we have a year round growing season! 😂
Great insight, you're wise beyond your years. Fascinating journey, thanks for opening yourself up and putting it out there to help others.
Good information! I have been looking for two years.
I bet if you painted your barn red with white trim, it would look so much better.
Why do we love this duck channel. Let me count the ways! vendetta chickens ! Quackin ! Cats trying to take over the farm! Geese and Toby Dog!
I currently live in England in a really large town in Essex but I personally hate people (except my partner) so hopefully this year I will be moving to Northern Sweden where there's less people. Me and my partner would like to have animal (chickens and ducks) eventually but as long as I don't have to be around a lot of people anything works.
If you could guess I'm one of the people actually enjoying quarantine.
100% with you. Urban Hermit seeks subsistence farm to escape Humanity...
Ever been to Northampton? Check out a township like Bradden, far less people than Essex and you dont even need to leave England.
Gör det.
Vi övergav Stockholm för Norra hälsingland när vi tog över släktgården från 1681. Jag gillar inte folk, jag har min familj. Bästa vi någonsin gjort.
@snmEli lo
_Go away race baiter._
Nice try to kidnap the thread. 😑
@snmEli lo
I'm European, Sweetheart.
Tell me Toby just got groomed! How in the world is he that clean 😂. One if our why's, because we were becoming empty nesters and needed a lifestyle change that would bring us closer by sharing a new common purpose after raising kids was over. There are alot of other beneficial why's but that was the biggest driver.
Maremmas, great pyreness, etc. have "magic" hair that shed dirt and mud. They can be covered in it and as soon as it dries or they wake up from their next nap, it has fallen off :D and there on occasion, is the outline of your dog from the sand, dirt/mud that shed. Pretty cool feature.
He just magically stays clean. I brush him once or twice a week and I cut nails once a month. But that’s it.
I have watched a lot of your videos and the most enjoyable ones, to me, are the factual ones, when you explain and instruct. You have an easygoing and likeable way, and explain things clearly... PS-did you think of a name for your puppy yet??
Great information
The quality and effort put in your videos are really really impressive!!!!! You and you upload frequently. I just want to say i love your videos and i look forward for them they lift up my mood sooo high so thank you very much ❤️
Always check how every acre you buy is zoned. The house & barn may be zoned agricultural but grandpa Fred might have had the back forty zoned residential or worse yet commercial. 🌞✌
Thanks for sharing useful points!
Glad it was helpful!
@@GoldShawFarm Indeed) Greetings from Canada!
In our area you HAVE TO view any property you buy in the spring at peak runoff. There is a gigantic aquafer under this whole area, so unless you plan to build on top of a mountain (and even if you do plan to do that), you never know what will turn into a lake in the spring until you see it.
Toby is getting big fast!
Oh yea he’s growing bigger 😆
In California
#1 priority is access to WATER.
Same in Nevada
Yep same in Washington State
This should be the priority in every state. Water is being bought up by big corporations in some areas, so make sure you have a well or year round stream with water rights.
I am a new subscriber an I have to say you are a likable character someone I would befriend. Great show
He and his wife Alison are too cool. Simply put, 2 people trying make it in the suburbs and sometimes...Morgan seems lost. He's great. Peace :)
Toby sure has gotten big! Wow! Stay safe! 👍🇨🇦
Very informative. Thank you.
I love your show so much I wish you could post at least 5 x a week one of my very faves definitely ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!
I would add that if you never done the work before, to volunteer for season on a farm. You will get a chance to experience the work and the pay will be the same.
This is a great idea. I used to dream of farm living but over time I realized that the rigors of the work and commitment of the animals clashed with my other love traveling. Travel won out. This said, I love to live on Gold Shaw farm if only in my head for 10 min or more a day.
You broke it down pretty good....fine job.....:)
