A typical example of a family farm

Si Nuo Farm is located in fairfield County, central Connecticut, USA. If it weren't for red and white barns and scattered agricultural machinery, it would be hard for people to imagine a 94-year-old family farm in this shady garden with a yard and an inch of land.

Phil Si Nuo is the owner of the farm. He inherited a 60-acre farm from his grandparents and ran it with his family. According to the definition of the National Family Farm Alliance, this is a typical family farm: the family owns the property rights of the farm, and the family members are the main labor force of the farm, mainly responsible for management. Family farms vary in size, ranging from several thousand acres to several acres. Si Nuo farm is medium-sized.
