I know a woman who was a bit older than you and cared for a horse farm on her own. She boarded horses and taught riding. She has since married and now her husband helps.

Personally, I think it's chewing off a lot. I'm at the point where I want to scale back, but that's just me.

If you "buy the farm" and get in trouble maintaining it, do you have the funds to get help? Just a thought. You don't have to answer about your financial situation.

We have lots of horse farms in Baltimore County. Some have places for farm/barn workers to live. Would you consider boarding your horse and working the farm for them without owning anything? Probably not a good tax move, but a thought.
