Amazing! I'm a farmer. My answers were aimed at my future, so I guess that makes sense. Except for the color question. I just changed my favorite color to orange, like sunset orange. Before that it was pastel orange. You didn't have either one as a choice.
My daughter tested out as a mystic. She agrees, saying, "My garden is holy ground." And they are now considering other places, since jobs are apparently very scarce in South Dakota. Would you believe South Carolina is on the favored list? I'm getting closer!

I tested out as a hobbyist which is accurate. I get very interested in my garden in cycles, however my health keeps me indoors in air conditioning during some of the best gardening times. I made the decision to keep breathing though. CarolG.
I used to get terrible allergies from the pollen in Tennessee… I feel your pain.
Finally spring would come after a long, grey winter. I'd go outside, get covered in pollen, then spend the rest of the day wheezing with a headache. Keep on fighting.

I'm a hobbyist, too, which probably makes sense. My garden is full of weeds, but not because I've determined that they're nutritious :-/
I'm a MYSTIC! Makes sense to me, as I FEEL the spiritual aspects of farming when my hands are in the soil or wrapped around a pair of goat teats! I become part of the Circle of Life and everything feels peaceful and right with the world…….
I spend a lot of time praying out in the garden. Makes sense, if you believe mankind was first placed in a forest garden to tend the fruit and walk with God. There's nothing like walking through all those living things and breathing in the rich, living air.

Well man, I'm not happy about it but I had a feeling it was coming even though I think I'm more into the science and revolution… I got the mystic. The hippie. The mushroom eater.
My favorite stimulants: caffeine and nicotine. Dunno about mushrooms… they're terrifying.
I think I hit a piece of every one of these categories, so I know how you feel… just embrace the spirituality, man. Cool, yeah, cool.

:P Yeah, mushrooms are… boring really. Caffeine and nicotine are where it's at. You need to do a post on raising tobacco if you haven't already. I'm just getting started on my first crop.
It's a lot of fun to grow, just takes work on the front end and on the curing side. I can't roll a good cigar to save my life. My top post on tobacco is here:

Heh.

Favorite color is orange? You're getting more Floridian all the time…

Milking a goat is pretty darned cool.

Mmmmmm, homegrown stimulants.
Dammit!
Nice fun survey!

The test results confirm that I am a hobbyist…. makes sense …. I do it because it is fun and rewarding. But, its slowly becoming a way of life.
Most people start as hobbyists. Some of them later upgrade to maniacs. You'll get there. ;)
