Yeah I hope I haven’t bitten off more than I can chew, but I’m sick of staring at four walls and a computer screen five days a week working for the man. My goal is to replace my income by market gardening and get out of the corporate rat race before my ulcers kill me.

I’ve got plenty of ground to do it, I just gotta figure out the nuts and bolts of it and find efficiencies wherever I can so I don’t have to hire a bunch of help.

May I suggest this book .....

If nothing else, it’s a good read, but I think you might find his ‘journey’ interesting (gave up a ‘regular’ job to return to the farm) & there may be some lessons in his struggles and some ideas in his successes for you.
