Hi, my name is Stacy Stark and I live in Kentucky, the most beautiful state in the Union in my opinion. I have a small hobby farm, and raise chickens along with rescue cats and dogs, of which there is no shortage around here.. I stumbled upon Tractor-By-Net years ago and have been reading it ever since; somehow it lands in my email at least once a week. I'm always looking for easy ways to maintain my land, which is a bit hilly. The land itself is not great for crops; mostly clay and lots of rocks, which over the years I have tried to pick out. I've never had a tractor - just garden and zero-turn for cutting grass. I've got a Cub Cadet ZFFX54 inch deck and a JD Z535M with a 48 inch deck. My friend and neighbor has been helping me out the past few years, as he has a compact tractor and 6 foot finish mower that he kept when he sold his farm and moved into town. He mows the 3 and 5 acre fields for me which sure saves me a lot of time and effort! We worked out a deal where he keeps his tractor in my barn during the season then brings it home for the winter. We agreed on a price for his work. He is really excellent with the job he does - having farmed crops and cattle for man years before he retired over 25 years ago. I am lucky to have him as a friend and neighbor.
