I’ve begun work to get my place certified organic.

It takes three years to obtain that certification so I decided a couple weeks ago to get started.

My plan is to begin growing tomatoes on a commercial basis. Start small, invest the profits, and when the time is right say goodbye to the 9-5 rat race.

You can share the envy. ;)

This is my cured pork, pre-cooking and then it will smoke so that I can eat it tomorrow and the next day, and the next....

The smoker/whatever I picked up off the side of the road. That's my favorite recycle. I've used that device for smelting copper and aluminum. That's how I burned a hole in it. Oops. So now, I mostly smoke meat in it or cook meat. It works great for that. I never use the gas stuff on it. I always have some hardwood laying about.
