Hello, to all! I humble myself before you. I am Amyas Joe Maestas. I am learning every day about the practice of sustainable agriculture & food systems in a biodynamic way that consists of classic farming practices, the liberal arts of farming, forestry, draft power, and good land stewardship. My future passion is to be a farmer, work with food co-ops, build a successful business, strengthen my rural community, and most importantly work with rural advocacy groups. Farming is my livelihood. I have been learning these strong liberal arts and scientific backgrounds, as well as acquiring a stronger work ethic, and have passion and drive. My dream is to farm in a historically draft-powered, mid-scale livestock farm with an integrated crop and vegetable farm at a modest and humble scale. To practice agrarian-like practices and borrowing from yesterday to do the work of today!
