My grandfather had two farms that I visited twice a year growing up. Now I own my own Landscaping business after being a CPA for several years. Farming is a big business with large capital outlays for land and equipment. It is a weather dependent business which can be a bad thing. The great thing about being an entrepeneur is that you control your own destiny. You need to excel at many different things, especially marketing, which is how I found your blog. I could have taken over my grandpa's farm but found the isolation of the country to restrictive. I love big health clubs, great restaurants and well educated people to converse with. The farm is a great place to visit and unwind, though. I actually lived in the country for three years and found it wasn't for me.

2.5 months ago I met a tea farmer from Kyoto, Japan (Kyoto Obubu Tea Plantations), who spent his winters giving tea tastings around the world. 2 months ago, I fell in love with his business model–using the Internet to allow farmers and consumers connect. E-commerce has done so much to give farmers a voice, remind people that people create the food they eat.

More farmers should get involved in the concept of not only e-commerce but also Internet-based Community Supported Agriculture — when their produce can be shipped anyway. But, this example of having people from very far away come to the farm shows that even if their produce cannot be shipped to individuals, the farm's "community" does not have to be limited geographically. Inspiring.

[...] time: the two years since I have known him. Many people think it was totally crazy that he sent an email to me, out of the blue. But in hindsight it’s clear that he knew he needed something to kick-start his quarterlife [...]

I think the insight about the farmer's non-Amish reassurance was interesting. I can't quite grasp what the farmer thought of Amish people. Is that like an account executive saying "don't worry, I'm not a car salesman"?

Anyway, that's an interesting cultural perspective.

A perfect example of how a blog post can be compelling, authentic, and transparent without recourse to sensationalism or controversy of any kind.

so i dig the post as i live the dream: once a small time entreprenuer, now small time bureaucrat during the week, entreprenuer farmer by weekend. its a beautiful thing, trying to direct responsible best business practices by weekday and trying to direct responsible best land practices by weekend.

i want to thank everyone for their supporting comments to penelope’s blog, their interest in eating local; for experimenting with their food; being concerned with how the land is being used; and where their food comes from.

we appreciate it.
