How many here are actual backyarders vs. Farmers?

[Unclebean]

Backyarder with 11+ acres. We have chickens, turkeys and breed Keeshonds. We also plant a nice sized garden for veggies, pumpkins, etc. We have a small vinard and a few blueberry, raspberry, black berry and strawberry plants.

15 acres of a playground.

Not a farmer, just a guy that has a few chickens and grows a small
garden for pleasure.

Big yard. Forest with paths and roads cut throught it for a playground.
Each path used to be decorated with a different theme when our daughter
was younger. Not kept up so much these past couple of years. Now she
wants it redone, updated for her and her friends.

Seems like every weekend some of her friends are here, swimming, playing
in the woods.

Backyarder - within Austin city limits - but not without dreams of huge tracts of land (my husband and I share the dream

)

We live on a few acres, but I still consider myself a backyard chicken person, because it's just a hobby for me.

Backyarder. We have 5 or 5.5 acres. I've got about 100 birds right now. I usually end up carring 60-80 over the winter.

Starter farmer. We just moved to 5 acres in the middle of nowhere, 45 min from anything. Chickens are my beginning. I hope to get to the point of having a cow, growing some crops, having a big garden, etc.
