1 year on, how have you progressed to reach your dream?

@@Lifegrowsonandon I've been participating in a training program for engineering students. By the end of this year I'll graduate and be officially an engineer. There's a height probability that'll be hired to the position of chief of operations, which means I'll be able to save money. Right now, I've just collected information and wrote down an article with the best construction solutions based on my region environment conditions to achieve higher levels of production and comfort while working/living.

Awesome! Welcome to the channel!

Glad it could make you happy!

We plan to! Thank you for the encouragement!

Where you from?

It’s also my dream, i am from Dubai, how can i do this

Thanks a lot!

@@FarmersFriend thanks from depth heart for reply to me 🙏🙏😊😊

Great questions. 1) The Quick Cut Greens Harvester was invented by Jonathan Dysinger roughly 10 years ago when he was about 17 years old. Since then it has become the go-to tool for small-scale farmers growing significant amounts of salad greens. 2) Back pain is greatly minimized by the fact that the tool harvests greens so quickly. Even though you're bending over to use the tool, you will only be in that position for a few minutes to harvest large amounts of greens. Multiple customers have shared that they are able to harvest greens 10x faster with the Quick Cut Greens Harvester than by hand. In just 10 minutes you can harvest up to 30lbs of greens with the Harvester, whereas that would take almost two hours to do by hand. Hope that helps!

It partly helps with sun, but also helps to keep the beds from getting too wet with rain. When growing under cover the farmer can completely control the amount of water that gets into the soil so it's always ready to plant and harvest.

Thanks!

Thank you!

These are some excellent questions that unfortunately go beyond the scope of what could be covered in a youtube comment. In short, farming isn't easy-get as much experience as you can by working on other farms to save yourself many costly mistakes. There is endless creativity regarding what types of structures can be used to grow successfully. You'll find examples of all the ones you mentioned and more on youtube. It is definitely possible to make a living with two full time people, but again, it takes a lot of work. Some knowledge or experience in both business and marketing is super helpful too. All the best!

Thank you!

1. no 2. Yes

Thanks so much! Any feedback you could give as to what would make it more interesting to you would be super valuable!

You need one

We do sell end walls for our tunnels that could be used, but I think Fair Share Farm just uses spring wire to attached a single sheet of plastic onto the ends during the winter.

You can purchase them at our website, farmersfriend.com. :)

If you watch their full interview here (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jdyfaZViqbWVm58.html) you'll learn more about how their farm got started!

@@FarmersFriend that link gives a 404 not found error just FYI

Ah, thanks. Try this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jdyfaZViqbWVm58.html

We sell four different variants of Caterpillar Tunnels, but for the specific ones that Fair Share Farm has, the tunnels are 14' wide by 100' long with a peak height of 7' 8". The bows are made from 3 sections of pipe which are slightly over 8' long. Hope that helps!

Thanks i am made waking tunnel thanks for information

Roughly 1 acre as I remember.

Unfortunately not. This content is the property of Farmers Friend and isn't licensed for use in any other way or by anyone else.

I don't believe that they are certified organic at this time.

I think they are Salanova lettuces from Johnny's seeds. You should easily find it by googling.

@@noble7453 Thank you 🙏

Salanova. The easiest to grow, and LEAST FUN. I hate that my market demands more salanova type lettuces now, than they used to when I started 15 years ago. People used to love my full sized, wild, leaf lettuces of all kinds. Ones you had to space 8in apart. Now everyone wants little tiny tight heads, packed in clamshells. I hate it. But you won't make $ growing lettuce unless you grow salanova.

@Stevospeedo And you both know that how?
