Might want to consider Wisconsin, you can get farther north in Wisconsin and still have decent soil (Northern Lower Michigan is spodosols, inceptisols and maybe even some entisols). In agribusiness Wisconsin has some potential for hay/forage production, raising veal calves, cranberries and potatoes there are also several canneries in Wisconsin so there is potential to raise vegetables under contract to a cannery.
