Hobby farm

A hobby farm is a smallholding or small farm that is maintained without expectation of being a primary source of income.

Others are managed as working farms for sideline income, or are even run at an ongoing loss as a lifestyle choice by people with the means to do so, functioning more like a country home than a business. Some have traced the growth of the concept to cultural influences such as the UK TV show The Good Life.
