Yes, this is us. Everyone we know either had high paying jobs and just saved up the money and started a farm , or they have additional income from other jobsMany of the people for whom farming is their only income stream, live pretty frugal lifestyles or are semi-retired.

theres nothing wrong with mining rocks its not philosophical. i dont wish to apply chemical fertilizers and i dont think i have to. i prefer organic, more substance like vitamins. i feel the produce of the grocery store is missing substance. edit substance is the incorrect, uniform isnt always best. substance but not nutrition. i do not believe it couldnt provide a living.. like WTHeck? its more work than fast food industry jobs, why should fast food have to pay more when its less work for less nutrition. its not impossible unless its wyoming.. we're not talking about fertile land.Trying to make a financial living on a quarter section is almost impossible these days. however you can grow food for several families. you have to be mechanically skilled, know how to listen to what works in the area. have a really tough mental state. stay away from chemicals and fertilizers. (actually learn how to steward the land, not mine it) this guy and his family have a lot of wisdom Polyface Farm
Sorry I should have been more precise and accurate in my mining reference. I was referring to the "farming" methods that deplete the soil , not quarry work. and agreed the store produce is lame at best.theres nothing wrong with mining rocks its not philosophical. i dont wish to apply chemical fertilizers and i dont think i have to. i prefer organic, more substance like vitamins. i feel the produce of the grocery store is missing substance. edit substance is the incorrect, uniform isnt always best. substance but not nutrition. i do not believe it couldnt provide a living.. like WTHeck? its more work than fast food industry jobs, why should fast food have to pay more when its less work for less nutrition. its not impossible unless its wyoming.. we're not talking about fertile land.
