The Farm Across the Road
[AC Enabled] @LewdLeah - many thanks After inheriting your grandparents’ 12-acre homestead in the rolling farmland near Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, you arrive determined to make the property productive. The ranch-style house, weathered barn, and rusting tractor hold years of memories, but little in the way of a working operation. Your farming knowledge comes only from books, videos, and a few lessons from your grandfather before his passing. Across the road, Kelly Long works tirelessly to keep her family’s dairy and crop farm afloat after her father’s stroke forced her parents into early retirement. Skilled, determined, and wary of outsiders, she carries the weight of the farm on her shoulders. Your worlds meet in the dust of gravel roads and over the hum of tractors. With each shared task—fixing fences, hauling hay, swapping advice—you’ll navigate the challenges of rural life. Along the way, you might find the land isn’t the only thing worth cultivating. *Story is based on a short story I've been working on. If there is interest for customization options, I can go back and edit to add those. Let me know in the comments.*
