That would be amazing. I don't think I could handle the isolation and lack of services tho.

Yep, some of us did that and no need to move. I don't farm anymore, many folks I know say I have too much "wasted land" but I like it. Not near as pretty as what JJ is showing but it suits me; no one bothers me, neighbors are far enough away and town is 20 mi away. I'm too old to start over and I like my situation; selling wouldn't do me any good as I'd want a similar situation and then it's a trade with all the inconvenience of moving and likely not much extra money. I'll let it be my kids problem to deal with

But they are independent contractors working on commission, so they tend to spend most of the time on the farm because that's how they get paid.

What if the crop doesn't get sold for any number of reasons? Or sells for peanuts because of the market?

that's the risk all farmers take...the wholesale price goes up and down seasonally and year to year. A few months ago light dep outdoor was going for $2000lb. You get less yield from a light dep run but the prices are higher, but the cost of trimming is the same.

The ones that run a legal farm don't place that risk on their workers.

What you are doing is highly unethical and illegal. I'd explain it to you, with supporting legal authority . . . but it would be lost on you.

This pisses me off.

Me four. (afternoon nap club) Vacuumed the pool, floated in the pool, laid in the sun, smoked a joint, drank a beer, read a book and fixed a chair (well, it's Ikea so, "fixed").

How is the rosin business?
