    My last cleaning is usually around November..
    Or... It could be considered the first one,
    depending on your perspective..
    :D

    I'm pretty sure the wife wants the whole field as the garden. Or dang close to the whole area. Way to much to till by the walk behind putter I have now!

    That looks close to 300 x 300, or 2 acres area. Definitely next level farming.

    Edit: 200 x 200 feet = .918 acres area, 150 x 150 = .51 acres, 100 x 100 = .23 acres area.

    JD and Kubota are the popular small farm equipment in this area. Several Massey Ferguson and Ford tractors in town also.

    If I may humbly suggest - call your local County Extension Service, get a soil analysis done, before committing large $$$, discuss what you both want to do: and consider hiring-out the initial plowing / tilling / harrow before any major equipment purchase, w/ the upcoming home purchase in-the-mix.

    (Not trying to dissuade you, just saying what I would do, if here.)
