oh friend, there are dozens of us. DOZENS!
But seriously, YES! You can be a farmer. Yes, you. The sustainable agriculture movement is happening all over the US. Check out Acres USA, and if you have time, an apprenticeship is a great way to get started. The most inspiring book I've read on the subject is You Can Farm by Joel Salatin. PM me if you want to chat!
/r/homesteading/ would be a good resource for you.

I takes a lot of work and lots of skills to farm. It takes even more to break even at it. The odds of success are very low. But people can succeed.
Good Luck!

Not sure if you've seen this but it might be of interest.
It doesn't. If there was an economic meltdown then gold & silver would be as worthless as paper money, people can't eat or shoot with gold. If you are buying gold for an investment then wonderful but if you are looking to survive an economic colapse your money is much better spent on property and guns. Learn how to farm, Learn Bushcraft and buy a few months of food reserves.
i am an american planning on backpacking in AUS. a lot of these jobs are targeted directly at backpackers on gumtree since they know most urban dwellers wouldn't want to do work this hard, fickle, or seasonal. they're sort of taking advantage of our lack of choice and therefore able to offer very low pay, or none at all in exchange for room and board, with the ability to stay in the country.
You could also try looking for farms around you by woofing.
If you want to get into business for yourself (basically all farming is) I'd pick up some books by Joel Salatin which give realistic expectations of farming life and some semi-realistic ideas for starting out for yourself.
Most farmers have bits of excess land that they can find no use for and will rent to you for super cheap. This is a good way to do some tunnel house chicken coops and such and to learn for yourself.
