Gentleman's farm
A gentleman's farm is an extremely small or non-operative farm.[citation needed] They are generally small acreages that are not used to produce large amounts of food, grain, or livestock for major markets.[citation needed] Gentleman's farms are also used as hobby farms, for horse rearing, or as bed and breakfast establishments.[citation needed] The gentleman farmer has an independent source of income and farms for pleasure rather than for money.[1]
Notable gentleman farmers include Frederick Hinde Zimmerman,[2] Frank C. Rathje, and William Locke Allison, known for Allison Woods, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[3]
