I have known a few, none now.

My family worked in several facets of dairying for decades, lifetimes.

It's an extremely expensive endeavor especially for a small producer.

As one of my farming mentors used to say: "It's MUCH easier to farm with money, than for money!"

I just don't want to look back and think "I could have eaten that."

Unsupervised, rebellious, radical agrarian experimenter, minimalist penny-pincher, and adventurous cook. Crotchety, cantankerous, terse curmudgeon, non-conformist, and contrarian who questions everything!

The best thing about a vegetable garden is all the meat you can hunt and trap out of it!

Or as the old joke puts it, "How do you make a small fortune in [insert agricultural pursuit]?"

"You start with a large one."
