About
My name is Chris Allen, I have been an entrepreneur for over 20 years. I love the excitement of envisioning a cool new idea, and putting it together, I love to think about how to impact the world, or fix a simple problem, then go out and take the required steps to implement the idea.
On a personal note, I am happily married, my wife, RaNae and I have 7 children from 1 to 15 years old. I have spent the last 12 years involved with coaching CEOs on how to improve their business, and raise capital and streamline their strategy…
Currently I am in the wild transition from consulting and capital raising to organic farming. I have spent the past two decades dreaming of living on a beautiful small farm, raising cows, goats, chickens, ducks, horses, and having a small orchard, rasised-bed gardens in a greenhouse, and being more self-sufficient, and just recently made the jump, as I moved my family of nine from Draper, Utah to Nixa, Missouri.
We are currently looking for a small farm (30-200 acres) about 60 minutes from Springfield, Missouri. To say that this is a lifestyle shift is a huge understatement. I haven’t been this excited and inspired about the possibilities and opportunities in years, yet the tasks before us are huge and scary… stay tuned, as my family and I take this exciting journey.

What a gift! You write so beautifully and the many pratical, financial suggestions are the very thing missing from so many other sites. I know of a charming farm (160) acres not far from Seymour that may still be for sale. Let me know if interested and I can show you where it is.
