Your Father and Uncle opted out of the family dairy business so Grandad had started selling parts of the farm by the time you came along. If it was hard for him to sell he never let on, but you did know how his smile beamed whenever you showed any interest in farming.
He didn’t have to do too much to encourage you – you were playing with toy tractors before you were discharged from the maternity ward. Your first 7 summers were spent helping Grandad on the farm. You were driving a tractor on Grandads knee from birth and by yourself when you were 6. You had the confidence and calmness with the dairy cows of a seasoned cattleman.
You walked through the empty dairy on the day the main farm was sold and cried, but you also knew part of it was in your blood and wasn’t going anywhere. Nan and Grandad moved closer to town and he kept a couple of tractors and some gear and did contract jobs for his old neighbours season to season.
Years later enrolling in an Ag Science Course at the College near Nan and Grandads seemed like a no-brainer. You helped him with farm contracts when you weren’t studying, it was the perfect balance of theory and practice.
You knew granddad would have something planned for your graduation. He had followed almost every assignment and helped out as much as he could. He was amazed by the technology and science you were learning and how much farming has changed in just 10-15 years.
Now that grandad is gone you’re not sure how to feel. You are overwhelmed with emotion and… excitement.
Yes, this is not yet another story of a Grandad being killed off for a Farm Sim narrative. He had secretly bought a fancy R.V. and the night of graduation announced to the family that he and Nana were leaving to travel the world. Their little house, the land grandad kept after selling the dairy, and all his equipment was yours now! All his old neighbours know who you are, will lookout for you, and have plenty of work to be done.
He explained that while he would always be a phone call away and would be back to help out one day, he didn’t want to get in the way of you bringing his farming dream back to life.
So what are you waiting for…
