Im transwoman and in a lesbian relationship so a place that would be open so that thing is a must.
Legal weed is kinda important for gfs pain management and my migraines.
Looking for rural area where me and gf can start small farm/ food garden. 10ish acres for goats and chickens maybe a pig.
I prefer the moderate climate of PNW, but scared of mold and mildew with the excess rain you can get there. Does the 200+ days of rain affect what you can do as far as buildings/structures? Would I want to look for somewhere up the Cascades a little? Prices in west PNW are a bit out of budget.
When you get to central/ east WA and OR gf doesn't like the desert barrenness and lack of trees/privacy.
My mom wants us to move to CO because she will be potentially moving there. I am concerned of price, desert/barren, and water restrictions/availability.
I like the idea of NE (Maine or Vermont}. Prices seem great out there. But climate can be as, or more intense than where I am now.
I have never moved across country before. Is there a national realty company I should contact? Or how to I get into the process of having help looking?
Thoughts?

You picked probably the best regions of the country for LGBTQ+ friendliness in rural areas. Probably the farther west you are in the Pacific NW states, the better.
If you've never moved across the country before, definitely have a job lined up before you move, even with the cost of living being lower in rural areas.
I know nothing about farming, but if you want visible trees and not a lot of rain, yeah, maybe the eastern edge of the Cascades is a good place to look (or New England).
I don't know that CO is your best bet. Acreage with water access for goats and pigs could put you into the "stock" category, which would require a minimum of 35 acres for the water permits. 35 acres for $250k with water probably isn't going to happen. Suffice it to say you need to do more research on if this is a feasible approach in CO.
A small town in the PNW. Outside of Seattle and Portland the PNW actually isn't that expensive.
