I do dry goods, frozen goods, and canned goods. You just can't go wrong no matter what happens to the economy.

I just bought 2 acres of land here to cultivate and plant and hope to start a Produce Subscription Service. There are two other farms within about 50 miles of me that do the same and they sell a yearly subscription for $700.00 for the full year and $350.00 for just the fall. You get a Bushel Basket a week with fruits and veggies all grown on site. I hope to be up and fully running with fruit trees in about 4 years. It will be something to do if nothing else and the freezer will always be full.

I bought an Allis G tractor.....weird little tractor but you can see everything that your doing.
