I look into a lot of stuff,,because tv stinks,,and I have time,,,,lol... Recently been looking at Spin farming,,,Small Plot Intense farming. I m not interested in doing it,,but do really like gardening. If I was younger,,I Think I would try it . My observation of the area we live in here in NJ ,I think some of the ideas would be profitable as a sideline.
I have been reading about it.Its not a new concept,,but it is very interesting to me.
It may work,if you have a market and buyers in your area.
This year,,with my little garden,I watched carefully what friends and neighbors like.
They like tomatoes,,but when ours are ripe,many have their own,,or other friends have them.That is certainly the same with zucchini and such,,and some vegetables,they have no idea what they even are.
But,,,heres something I really noticed,,,,,everyone likes fresh cut lettuce.
When I Tell neighbors and friends to help themselves to beans,cherry tomatoes,squash etc,,no one does.
When I Say lettuce is ready,,many come with bags and scissors to get some,,and thank me,,and rave about it.
I feel ,if I was younger,,and really concentrated on it,I Could raise a lot of lettuce.I also believe I Could market it in our area here in central NJ...Especially since the scares of romaine lettuce from the store this year..///thats my 02 cents thought for the day.///Any opinions will be gracefully accepted!!
