Farm Project Description
I am an aspiring farmer looking for organic land to start a market garden. I would also like this land to start a homestead for my family. I have been a gardener all of my life, growing small plots of food for my family. I would like to expand my experience and knowledge in organic farming. My goal is to market garden, as well as find land to grow perennials to start a herbal tea business.
I would be very happy to find an experienced farmer to apprentice me if that option becomes available.
