I was presented with this suggestion a bit back and it got lost in my brain like so many things.. But better late than never! You can introduce your farmer and farm and/or include a bit about yourself if you want to.. Just whatever you feel like sharing as long as its appropriate  I am Jessi. I run the dealership for our community. I love keeping myself busy helping you guys and running the dealership and dealership production yard. My personal farm is in the beautiful Greenwich area with my amazing wife but we don't get a great deal of time to farm as the dealership keeps me pretty busy. IRL I live in Illinios in the United States. I am 35 years young. I have been around and operated heavy equipment my whole life including farming equipment but I have never been a farmer. I have been playing fs since the end of fs15. I started off on console and about.. idk.. 3/4 of the way through fs17 I switched to pc. I am very dedicated to this forum and its members. Providing this place for you guys has brought me more joy than I can put into words and I will happily continue to do so as long as you will have me. I am lucky to have an amazing wife who understand this and completely supports me in this adventure |

Also play a bit of Arma (started in the original flashpoint), and spintires.

I'm from Illinois and I farm IRL. The first time I ran a tractor by myself with no one around was when I was 11 or 12.

I'm Witchy, aka Jessi's other half. (Not the better half, just the other.) I haven't been much of a presence, but intend to be around more. I got into FS because of my wife. Never operated any heavy machinery other than in games.

Hi, my name is Scott, I'm 27 years old and farm in real life on our family farm. I'm a 6th generation farmer and hope to continue it for many years. I live in northern Illinois and have been happily married for over a year now. I only play fs a couple hours of night when my wife is working. I'm actually a big sports phanatic, but like college sports better than pros for basketball and football. My favorite pro teams are the bears, Blackhawks, bulls, and white Sox.

34 years young, live in New South Wales, Australia in an old gold rush town called Gulgong. Now its all coal mining and farmland (however plenty of gold remains). Some cereal crop farms although livestock is most common, with pastures, mowable crops and grain grown to feed the animals. Vineyards were big here for a while but they flooded the market so now most of them are being ripped out and replaced with centre pivot irrigated pastures for livestock. Grew up watching and riding with pop out in the grey Massey all day long, sun beating down on him. I remember I sat on the wheel hub (mega dangerous), eventually he let me drive it after endless hours of begging. Loved the smell of burnt diesel from a tractor and the feel of my kidneys bouncing around like two marbles in a jar ever since Spent about 10 year working in cotton for various contractors and farms up north and then working in vineyards back home. Nowdays pop has fallen ill, 2 plastic knees, heart surgery, diabetes. All that good stuff that hard work and old age gives you. So I am now given the task of working the farm as he wants and listening to his advice so that when he is gone he can rest easy knowing I am keeping the farm profitable. That's me, I like to farm IRL or in FS, it makes me happy!! |

Hello all. I’m Aaron, 34 y/o. Been playing FS since it’s first iteration on console (PS3).
I live in S.W. Missouri, I’ve worked on a friends farm in my teenage years all through out high school, but I made a career choice to go into law enforcement and eventually firefighting.
I still dream of making it to farming either small hobby farm or big acre farm.
I enjoy all types of games but mostly simulators and racing. You can find me on Gran Turismo: Sport, Project Cars 2, Truck Driver, all PS4.
I love Atlanta Falcons football, pro-wrestling and Formula 1 racing.

Hello been a little slow to get to this but wanted to introduce myself. My name is Patrick, I am 48 and I grew up in north central South Dakota now reside in south central Michigan. When I was growing up I lived on a 7000 acre ranch where we raised 500 head of red and black Angus cattle. 200 head of holstein cows and around fifty pigs. We always had around 1000 acres split between wheat, barley, and a little bit of flax.

I'm mike and I'm from central Michigan. Been playing Farm sim for a while as I bought FS13 back right when FS15 came out. I've played each iteration since. I like sim games (ATS and Farming Simulator), RPG's (Fallout, Mass Effect, Outer Worlds) and FPS games. I mostly game when I get a chance as my job / family keep me pretty busy.

Hello everyone, this is JohnDeere318. Some of you may know me from the Giants forum. Haven't been playing FS in over a year and have finally begun playing it again. Boy, have I missed a lot! lol. This forum looked cool, so I thought I'd join in on the fun. Nice to meet you all!  Been playing this game since FS2013. |

Well, I thought it only right that my first post be an intro. Some of you have seen me over on the official Giants forums of the same name.
ROLEPLAY:
Took over operating a farm in Montana from the Welker family. They made more money than they knew what to do with, so they retired and sold me the farm on the condition that I kept the name. They said Shelby just wouldn't be Shelby without Welker branded equipment running around, so I obliged. To date I own 2 fields in the area in my first year, and I'm hoping to expand, but in due time. I'll probably come here looking for bargain equipment, or to sell things I have no room or use for. Like the 167 bales of hay I have stored, atm.
THE REAL ME:
I'm 36, and live in Sumner, WA. I'm a truck driver for a grocery store chain (Kroger), married with 3 step kids and living life. Been into FS since 15 on the xbox1, and hooked ever since. I mainly play on the weekends and may open my farm up to multiplayer as it gets bigger, I'll need the help with these fields!

Hello, my name is Dairydeere. Better late than never, I've been trading here on and off for a while but only recently started to pick up steam as I focus more on singleplayer than multiplayer. Been playing on PS4 since FS15, made the switch to PC for FS19, active member of FSN, moderator for Kederk Farm's discord (a lot is in my signature haha). I'm 15 years old, growing up on a dairy farm. Favorite tractor to drive is an 8310R, or any John Deere powershift you put me in Ingame: I currently farm 100 acres with 12 head of cattle on Skywalker Dairy in Mercer County, OH. John Deere 6410, 4230, 4955 MFWD, 8530, 8960 (on rent), 9860 STS, 9510 (secondary combine, courtesy of Bryan83). Only about 6 hours, but I plan on getting a lot more in as time goes on. I'm excited to use the trader for most, if not all, of my equipment exchanges. Also looking to start a different side in Chellington Valley if the map peaks my interest. |
