This gentleman embodies the saying "Failing to plan is planning to fail" Such good practical advice. Thank you.
I am not a market gardener nor I am sure I want to be one, but I enjoy your content and I can apply the knowledge I get here to other areas of life. Thank you!
I feel like all the current chaos in the world has made things incredibly clear and put me in the perfect position to finally live out my farming dream. When I started my degree I wanted to study soil science as a biology major but my natural strength in school was history & literature not science & math, so I went with my strengths and do still truly enjoy studying history. When Covid hit I was living & working in the city. Now I have been able to move out to a more rural location on 3 acres while working at my best friends open air produce market. Her and her husband have been building their customer base for years and the store has become a local favorite. Yet they still outsource all of their produce from farmers all over the state. I built compost & healthy soil all summer and have just finished preparing my rows & transplanting my fall crops from my makeshift nursery. All based on what customers are constantly asking for and what my friends have told me they need :) I’m excited to see how far I can go
You offer so much insight and wisdom to the small farmer. What a blessing. Just reading through your e-book and watching all your videos before considering a move. Thank you for the challenge! From Nova Scotia
Thank you Heidi! Whatever you decide to do, I wish you good luck! 👍
The best way to answer your 5 questions, is actually by saying that I've just quit my 9-5 job and heading home to start my farm.
Will be using and learning with you along the way, most likely asking you questions and clarifying some doubts that will come along...
how is it going?
Curtis Stone would be proud :-P I'm glad to see you made it!
You've put it so concisely. Farming turns plants into products. Thanks for another great video
Thank you for the reality checks. And the inspirations. From Trinidad and Tobago.
Very good questions for success.
Very nice Moreno.
Yes!
I’d have to market micro greens in the winter #alaska .
I work in the restaurant industry, I could make deals😉
•Salad greens, root veggies, unique potato varieties, tomatoes, micro greens, and mushrooms
•Take out a second mortgage on my house🤣
Thank you for this video, for your whole channel!
Today my head is spinning with all these questions, between terrified and excited to start fresh and make farming our way in life.
We enjoy watching your videos, taking notes and all as we are also considering to transition from 9-5 to a farming life :) Thanks again
ฉันดูการทำงานและผลของคุณ ฉันชื่นชอบมากเพราะฉันคิดว่ามันมีประโยชน์มากกับงานที่ฉันจะทำต่อไปในอนาคตขอบคุณมากนะ จากกรุงเทพฯ👍👍
Hi Moreno! Awesome awesome video! Of all the farmers I follow on CZcams you're the only one willing to actually share financial information. I can answer Question 1 -100% yes. Question 2 - I am a super saver. I can live off little no family or kids. Question 3 is my biggest concern. Is it possible to make a video on marketing and client relations? Who are the clients? Can you elaborate the differences between 'the market', retail, CSA, restaurants and your experience and advice with each? We rarely see any videos on that part of farming. Question 4 will be fairly easy over time, waiting 3 years to get the 'organic' certification in EU while I do online work. Question 5: I've seen your videos and many others. I also have a solid potential investor. Anyway. Thanks again!!!
Thanks for your videos, they are full of very clear and help full tips, ideal for all of us thinking about starting a small farm. Keep up the great job!
Greetings from Chile.
Great video as always, Moreno.
We have done a lot of research and, combined with a long term passion for farming, we have decided to go into farming. Most of these are questions we have asked and answered satisfactorily, I think ☺️.
Thank you for adding new depth to them here, though. You have only heightened our interest and strengthened our resolve.
Keep keeping on.
Dereck, South Africa.
Love your videos man.
Hey Joel, thanks! Hope they're useful! 👍
Liked before watching. Thanks for this!
Very informative as always Moreno ^-^ Thank you
It's a good questions. Those are really need for starting a farm business. Thank you for the tips Sir.
you are really good at this thanks for the information well and clear
Well said. Good questions.
Thank you for the videos and the e-book. Has helped me a great deal in going back and start farming again. Made me see where I failed and how to rectify the mistakes I made.
Many thanks Man
Where?
Please provide us ebook
No. 1 is such an important question that aspiring farmers need to ask themselves BEFORE they take the plunge and sink money into land, equipment, supplies etc.
Pastoral, romantic, let's-live-off-the-land dreams are well and good, but most of us from non-agricultural backgrounds have no idea what running a farm entails.
It is a 24/ 7 job, and you sometimes run at a loss.
Nothing like having to let crops rot in the field/ chop-and-drop/ till them under, for a reality check :/
Great video, thanks
Helpful ❤
Awesome. Thanks.
Sharing free e-book is amazing. You really do a great job.
How to get the eBook
Please share with us
Love the vid as always, thank you. 👍 What compost would you recommend to deep mulch, for preparing beds for the first time, covering pasture land? We're in France, a few hours sw of you. I'll get a soil test done first, so I'll know what additional corrections are needed
Great Video! How has the coronavirus changed your operations and demand for your products?
Hey Shane. The first couple of months that it all started the demands went through the roof. We're now doing more and more home delivery service. It's really a great way of working. We also still have our wholesale accounts that are extremely stable. In fact, we can't really keep up with their demands. If we would have 10x the land surface we would still be able to sell everything (if we diversified!). If one thing this situation has taught us it's that small farms are extremely important. People will need to continue to eat so in that regard, healthy and locally grown food is not such a bad industry to be in;)
Great video
Thank you Shafeeque!
Important talk, good lack
I am from Bangladesh
Thanks for sharing! Overall I agree but nothing is 100% a given, some people work themselves hard, maybe too hard, while others succeed while having a pretty good time. Talking about the No-Till Growers episodes with Cheyenne Sundance vs Zach Selby for example. And for true sustainability we have to take good care of ourselves too. For me that may mean taking time off during the hottest weeks of the year when our most profitable crops don't do too well anyways, why work harder for less results when you can take time off to recharge and be ready for when hard work makes more sense
Spot on! ;)
Este canal es español seria tremendo!, gracias por el contenido!
Si x favorrr
Thanks for the questions. They are very helpful. May we ask how many people are working for your farm besides you and your wife ?
I asked myself and subscribed your channel.
Great advices.lm growing fruit trees. My target is to have 5 or 8 harvests avocadoes 2 aug and nov guava 4 crops and bananas leaves are in high demand weekly. .organic vegs to eat. This year testing dates and pomerganates so far it looks good. Raise some free range chicken to eat. Ps I wish my earth is black like yr farm. Here the dry is hot and earth baked..
You can buy a little speaker/ micro phone (I don’t know how it call)and hang on your shirt so you save your energy shouting. It must be tiring for you. I love your all videos as always
🤣😂🤗 great questions! No I’m not a farmer.
Maybe one day 😃
Olá. Comecei a ver os seus vídeos e dou-lhe os parabéns por partilhar tanta experiência e conhecimento, mas fico nervosa porque fala muito rápido e por vezes não consigo acompanhar o raciocínio. Seria possível ser mais pausado? Obrigado.
My question is how to work your crops on rolling to keep production weekly or at least every 15 days no stop??? Of 15 to 20 products
Wow
What fruit/nut trees would you recommend if I wanted to have a similar market garden layout to yours? I think having trees spaced correctly would be great for hot/humid regions (Zone 9b). Also thanks for all your information and videos!
Hey! I would go for a mixture of productive and support species that are known to be performing well within your area. Also, make sure to base the majority of the production of perennial tree/plant systems on the local demand. In fact, I've got a video planned that will be online within a couple of weeks that will go into this and several other tips and considerations for such a setup.
@@TheDutchFarmer Awesome, I'll be looking out for that video. Thanks!
Moreno if you had the option to grow in space without tree canopy overhead would you? If you had both space with canopy and without avaliable would you utilize both depending on crop?
Do you ever go on vacations? Or is it really hard to leave the farm for a longer period?
I am very curious abut peoples thoughts on Delivery for CSA boxes. I am debating it, but it seems like a lot of additional work.
hi Dutch farmer, what are the sizes of your wood chip paths? you said length are 10 meters and beds are 75cm, but what are the best size for paths, thanks so much!!!!
Proszę dodać tłumacza po polsku.....dziękuję....Bardzo interesujące , będziemy pana słuchać i oglądaćw Polsce......pozdrawiam.
How do you grow such big scallions? They're enormous!
I just learned how insanely advantaged small footprint farms are in my country.
They basically assume you make no money, so you are essentially tax exempt regardless of your actual income.
How is it with you?
are you calling from the IRS? :D
Unfortunately that doesn't work the same way here! Where do you live if I may ask?
@@TheDutchFarmer here in Spain they tax everything even your sleep
Hello Mr Moreno!!!.... I am planning to grow Broccoli in 1 acre of Land....for Commercial Purposes.... I hav one question...... Do we hav to Consider the Direction of the beds that we r gonna make for broccoli...Like North to South or East to West... Is direction of beds any relevant????
how do you organize seeds could you tell me about that
Are you the only one working on this farm? Does your wife help you or does she have her own job?
No entiendo el idioma, porfavor ,podría ser posible subtítulos en español
Muchas gracias 😊
i assume that 'a shoe ming' means assuming?
😄😄😄😄😄
it has been a year since your last video. I hope to know how you doing
X favor seria posible en español??
I am a beginner....please help me to get more information.
Hi Moreno, do you offer internships?
There are folks here in the US who think that b/c a farmer traditionally may not have gone to school past 12th grade that it's easy to farm.
So so wrong.
What's hard about it besides the constant financial anxiety part?
TAKE IT EASY ON THE KLEMTONES
Got it!
Мне так не жить, а жаль.
Farming is nice but tha farming don't like me hahahahha 😂
Boy, why is your face in the frame all the time, and not the plants that you grow?
