Sincerity Farm

Sincerity Farm is a family farm in Paris, Tennessee, focusing on raising high yields of quality white corn, soybeans, canola, and wheat with conservation and efficiency. The farm is based on land owned by the family for 110 years. I care about the future of this land and my children’s ability to do well with it, even better. This blog serves as an insight into the hopes and cares of a modern row-crop farm family. Some of the conservation that we practice is long term, well planned improvements, while other plans have to do mostly with one day’s decision that could have consequences lasting years.
The purpose of this blog is to show-and-tell a new generation how the old family farm has NOT sold out to giant, wasteful, reckless, corporate, “factory farms.” Rather, it is preserved in gradually larger, more efficient, environmentally friendly, tech-savvy, still-family farms.
Conservation, on my farm, is about a sincere desire to be an acceptable steward of this good land that God has provided. Ernest is the name of my father and of my great-grandfather who was the first of my family to own the "Home Farm" where I live and work. It is in the spirit of their names that I carry on this working tradition with Sincerity Farm.
