Top 10 reasons to marry a farmer.

10, They can fix just about anything.
Trust me, this one comes out of necessity. Sometimes even your broken heart.

9, They have caring and patience for animals and kids.
Well most of them anyway. I have never seen a farmer get angry with an inpatient cow.

8, They don't leave home to go to work.
This is only a good thing when you enjoy being around the one you love as much as we do.
We can spend the day apart and be perfectly fine, but we much prefer to work together!


7, They always smell of something interesting.

No boring cologne here. It could be hay or chainsaw oil, maple smoke, among other things, but you won't get tired of the same old scent.

6, They have access to clean healthy food.

If they don't grow it themselves, they know someone who does.

5, They don't need fancy wardrobe with lots of ironing.

Suits and starched shirts, or many trips to the dry cleaners, not here. Wash, dry and back to work.

4, They have stamina.

 They surely don't quit until the task at hand is completed.
Take this as you will, but it makes me happy.

3, Their muscles are earned from hard work.

Do you think it's easy stacking hay or firewood? Who needs a gym when all you do is lift all day?

2, They are loyal.

 Do you know how old their favorite tractor is?
They are not one to throw something away, they will try everything to fix it first.

1, Smarts, rugged strength!

In a society where men are encouraged to be feminized, Farmers are still real men, you can't beat that!

Disclaimer: please do not go looking for a farmer just because of this list. I defer to the best reasons to marry anyone, love, kindness, friendship.

Happy Valentines's day!
