We are open to entertain any kind of reasonable deal. I have invested a fair bit of time and money into building compost. There is about 6 tonnes of cured weed free aerated compost made from the manure and hay from our animals winter feed. The site was prepared with cover crops. There is an old building that could be fixed up and used as a processing space and an old school bus we have used for starting seeds. We just have too much on the go to do a good job of it. I would insist only that the farmers are on board with no dig/ no till principles other than an initial tillage pass where necessary. We are about 25kms from the nearest town and 1.5hrs from Edmonton so you would need your own transportation as well. Have a good customer base to get you started. I think we would like to have 2 people preferably like a couple that could share in the journey together.
