What jobs can we do at the homestead or with the homestead as our base?
Buy or build a candle dipping machine. I met a guy that bought a ton of beeswax at a time, from large bee operations. He would sell hand dipped candles. technically they were machine dipped. Beeswax candles go for a higher price. They are a favourite with churches as they don't smoke. The lack of soot is a big seller especially in a church or other place that uses lots of candles. Beeswax candles would be a great pepper item. Slumgum fire starter and beeswax lip balm are just two other items to market.
