July 21, 2010 at 2:40 am #61385Lane LinnenkohlParticipantMoving back to NE Illinois to be closer to family. I have found a small farm to rent up there so I’ll keep farming and working horses.

I have had some serious interest, but as of now the farm is still for sale.
November 4, 2010 at 12:55 pm #61391AnonymousInactiveDryBranchFarm I am interested in the farm that you have for sale in ky. If it isnt sold yet please let me know. I am living now in clarksville tn but I want out of here and that farm sounds like it is what I am looking for. Thanks Jim
December 13, 2010 at 4:34 pm #61389Lane LinnenkohlParticipantWe have enlisted the help of a listing agent, so some things have changed in the original post.
We may also be willing to take on a renter starting around April 1, 2011.
