Anyone familiar with Missouri farms?
I'm hoping to connect with landowners, investors, agents and lenders familiar with farm land in Missouri.
My husband and I are interested in a lifestyle investment in some land where we can get away from the city with the kids. (And where my husband can hunt!) We'd like this farm to at least partially, if not fully, pay for itself with rented tillable acres, timber, etc. Looking for something 60+ acres that's within a 3 hour drive of St. Louis. Anyone have experience with this??

Megan - technically all six units are furnished short term rentals - length of stays vary. We absolutely still enjoy the land and use it for hay production. If you go this route I would recommend buying land near a large hospital, military base, national park, etc. Something that will consistently bring people to the area.
