Buy Local!

The New York Times recently published this article about about the economy of small farms...
Small Farmers Creating a New Business Model as Agriculture Goes Local

Basically, for a variety of reasons, "local farm sales are becoming more stable, predictable and measurable".

And, " More predictable revenue streams, especially at a time when so many investments feel risky, are creating a firmer economic argument for local farming that, in years past, was more of a political or lifestyle choice.".

Hopefully someday (soon!) I'll be one of those people "who gets dirt under their fingernails doing the work."!

I'm not living in an RV, though...
