Gentleman's farm

Okay, so you know how farms are places where people grow crops and raise animals like cows and chickens? Well, a gentleman's farm is a special type of farm that is usually owned by someone who isn't a full-time farmer.

Think of it like a hobby farm, kind of like how you might have a hobby of collecting stickers or playing with Legos, but instead of stickers or Legos, these people have a farm as a hobby. They might only spend a few days a week or a few months a year at the farm.

Instead of growing crops to sell or raising animals to sell their meat or milk, they might grow things like flowers or vegetables for their own enjoyment, or they might have animals just because they like having them around.

Gentleman's farms are usually located in rural areas, away from the cities and towns, so they offer a peaceful and scenic place to relax and get away from the busy world. It's kind of like having your own little private paradise to visit whenever you want to escape from the stress of everyday life.
