    Perfect timing. I'm in the very early stages of starting a poultry farm. I have the land, tractor, and passion. I'm a web developer/marketing specialist, while I enjoy doing that and it pays well... I enjoy raising pasture raised poultry more.

    Love this video, thank you for sharing. As a single working Mom of three, sometimes that door feels too far away to even be able to knock on! I won’t stop trying though.

    I searched “turn hobby into a business” and found you! You are a kindred spirit: chasing community and not money. I have you on my playlist to listen again to assist me in my transition. Thank you for your wisdom and inspiration! 🫧

    This is really, real content Jill, clearly the product of a lot of time and thought, nicely done, I appreciate your candid look at this topic, our end game may not be the same but your process is solid across multiple spheres of endeavour.
    All the best Jules 🌈👏

    Pen to paper girl here too! When I think of growing food, flowers and herbs all I want to do is be able to give away free to friends/family so we all can thrive. Last summer’s goal was to fill a box freezer for the winter menus. This year I’ve been deep in dehydrating herbs, making products for Christmas gift baskets, packaging teas and eating fresh. We both work F/T so balancing time/activities is the hardest part. I don’t chase a $. I feel fulfilled sharing my talents with appreciative others.

    Jill!!! Thank you! I'm literally frosting, glazing and ganaching cakes to go out the door for delivery right now! I have a home bakery with the aspirations of opening a store front! At times it seems impossible. So much machinery is needed to produce on a large scale! This was exactly what I needed to hear! I will just have to keep praying, dreaming and baking my bootie off till I get there. Many thanks and blessings!

    Thanks Jill! Great information. I'm still in my classroom because of financial reasons but I'm right behind you! Going to move down south within the next couple years. That's where all my family is anyway. Jessica's actually centrally located right about where I'd like to be among my family. Side note: I put a thumbs down on two different comments to get your attention. If you translate them they look like spammers 😳

      Key words and hash tags play a big role. There are several very informative TH-cam videos and courses around growing your TH-cam

  • @theaeroponictowerchannel
    @theaeroponictowerchannel 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know there is a tip toe type approach around discussing the times for many in the homesteaders network......but the reality is that those talking about what is happening and how to prepare for it are growing really fast. If that's a part of who you are, it would serve you and many to bring it to the table.

    I agree you shouldn't chase the dollar because people that do that are never happy or content obviously you have to make profit but if you enjoy what you are doing and are passionate about it chances are the dollar will find you.
