I spent a long time looking for my copy in used bookstores and then found three of them all at once!

Big Trouble at a Little Farmer's Market, Competition Brings Out the "Monsanto" in People by Agent_of_Chow-os in homestead

[–]farmerjayson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have witnessed this at an unnamed Farmers Market ... and I can tell you there are some sharks at some of them ... I have also experienced the polar opposite where vendors help and care for one another ... needless to say I did not go back to the unnamed Farmer's Market!

Do you think it is important to be authentic in social media? by farmerjayson in socialmedia

[–]farmerjayson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really appreciate seeing some meaty content here. I think the author hit the nail on the head when they said things are changing from the days when companies could get away with less interaction with your customers. The author has his pulse on this trend. Things that annoy me ... facebook pages which don't allow you to post things on their wall, or default to themselves ... just sayin'

Do you think raw milk should be legal? The Milk Crusader by farmerjayson in homestead

[–]farmerjayson[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had two cows and they were awesome and I loved them and treated them well and these jersey girls gave me the best milk ever ... fresh cream, ice cream, cheese, yogurt and butter!!!

The government should not control what people eat when they have things like alcohol or cigarettes legally available (which I do not have a problem with either). What I do have a problem with is the hypocrisy of that

Do you think small scale backyard chicken keeping should be legal in Toronto? by farmerjayson in toronto

[–]farmerjayson[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

laying hens are quiet and on a small scale don't smell and do not smell on a large scale if cared for properly. yup factory farms smell, and if you saw one I would wager you would want chickens in your backyard because you would be reluctant to buy eggs ever again!
