Are you working or something that keeps you from going with them? I am single (or almost as soon as I finish paying for my divorce..working on it for almost 9 years). I have friends even married ones that help me out with things on my farm & their wives are my friends too so they are always welcome & even lend a hand sometimes that makes the work go even faster & more fun. One friend drove his tractor & bush hog over to clear a field that got overgrown. His new wife rode over on the tractor with him.

Another friend came over & patched my missibg roof pieces & tried to caulk to stop my front room waterfall in the rain. She & I worked on clearing brush on the side of my house. Team work is always wonderful.

I have a neighbor who keeps his horses on his property but lives over an hour away with his wife he married just after I moved here. His horses kept getting out & through my woods & up to my front field close to the road. They come down & we all went out to eat before I helped him repair my broken down barbed wire fence his horses were coming through. She isnt well enough & has eye sight problems so isnt able to give a hand helping but its wonderful she comes along & is involved even if not in a working way. Its awesome to ALL be friends. Puts a whole different dynamic on the situation.

Maybe it would help you & your husband if you were able to get more involved in his life??? Just a thought based on personal farm experience of my own.
