I have eighty acres in northern Maine, sixty acres of timothy and twenty or so of woodland. This is a summer getaway for my wife and I. We have someone harvesting the hay fields but there are plenty of areas that need maintaining e.g. the periphery of the fields, around the house, the driveway, around the pond...etc.. The hay fields are for the most part flat but the forested area abuts a stream and the elevation drops off to the stream precipitously in some areas.
I致e never been on a tractor and so I thought I should rent one a few times to get familiar with how they operate and how the attachments work.
Before I buy anything I'll likely have a garage or some kind of outbuilding put up. This is a summer place and so I'm somewhat concerned about leaving valuable equipment idle and unattended for months at a time. I was thinking that when I'm ready I would be getting something second hand.
Can anyone offer some details about the kinds of equipment I need for this?
Thank you.
