I got an idea and wanted to put out some feelers to see if there was any good feedback on it. I have never heard of it on a small scale and there may be a reason but everything starts with an idea.
I farm a little in the summer and have a lot of extra property that is doing nothing. I was thinking about leasing out garden spots for families. They would be prepared and ready to plant and could even have a package together with all there seed and fertilizer ready for them. They lease the garden area, come down to the country a couple times a week and take care of it and grow there own produce. We would offer help as they needed it and even rent out tillers and small equipment as needed along with tractor work if they get a little overboard.
I figure a family could fill up there freezer with stuff and do it on there on and save some money and have the feeling that it was grown the way they wanted it grown.
It would be more toward people that live in subdivisions or areas they don't have a place to have a garden, maybe they just don't have the tools or the know how and need some help.
Anyway, give me some feed back on what you think. It would not cost much to try except for getting the idea out there with some advertising.
Oh yeah, and if you support the idea what would it be worth for a garden place plowed, tilled and ready to go for a growing season.
