    I have been getting Mai's produce for some time at the Hickory farmer's market. I love that she is always introducing me to new vegetables and herbs to try. The produce is fresh and always great tasting. It's so exiting to visit her booth and see what's new. She's also great at suggesting how to cook what you purchase. 😀

    @WHSmith-zk2ox Před rokem

    And another cost saver would be to erect a pole barn to give your shipping containers shade... You will save tremendously in your heat coefficient trade off..... Lot of surface area you have to keep cool... Also, the excess Co2 your mushrooms are "exhaling" make a great turbo booster if you pump/recirculate to "Tents" next door for tomatoes and/or bell peppers..... And those only need a pvc pipe "frame" and 'black' bisquene sheeting..... Each sheeting will last 2-3 years, depending on your conservation techniques and the cost is minimal in comparison to 3 - 4k ea. purchase price for the conex you use..... The organic market is year around, but, you can always take a break in the summer when it comes time to sterilize your piping......

Oh, and bell peppers is another really good supplemental sideline..... Very manageable on a micro basis.....
