Update

It's been a long and winding road, but I was able to borrow enough money to buy my sister's half of the farm. I was able to save it from going on the market in which case, I would have lost it. I got behind in my blog, so I will just skip ahead to the present. We sold the corn crop. After splitting it 50/50 with my farmer, I made a little over $19,000. I have him take out his labor and expenses for the upcoming year such as fertilizer and seeds. Thus, when I got my check, I was left with $2,700. So, as lovely as it is to have a farm, if you are thinking of it, don't give up your day job.
