The Cushing Family

Most of us lead two lives. The one that pays the bills. And the one that makes us feel alive.

For John and Jennie Cushing, happiness meant land away from the city, where they could raise cattle and spend time with family. As full-time pilots flying out of DFW Airport, time at home on their land was something they treasured.

“We work our city jobs so we can have this life!”

 

When the Cushings finally discovered the perfect property, John called our team here at Heritage Land Bank (now Texas Farm Credit). We listened to them and worked to find a fixed-rate loan that fit the couple’s plans.

Today, the Cushings are one step closer to when they can leave their city jobs and stay on the land full-time. Because, as John and Jennie both admit, when they’re out in the country, it’s where they truly live.
