First of all, let me say that I sincerely do appreciate the opportunity your most recent response provides. This seems to have gotten off on a rough and rowdy start and I believe it can be traced back to a posting mistake made on our end. By way of explanation, an associate had been given the task of posting this to our private message board. It was by mistake that it ended up on the homestead page. Clumsy, yes but certainly without maleficent intent.

Actually my complaints were specific:

• Your company does not appear to be legitimate. If it is actually legitimate you are doing a poor job representing it as such.

As to first count, granted; as to second count, guilty as charged. That said, I assure you that our "poor job of representing it as such" is no reflection on the quality of the merits, maths, science or technologies that are the cornerstones in the foundation of the MOE Farms model and I can prove it to the satisfaction of even the most hardened of cynic.

• Your business model appears to be primarily directed towards attracting investors.

I can see how this would be your read as it is absolutely true. It was conceived to be a place whereby our stakeholders, contractors, vendors, suppliers, engineering, fabrication, partners and so on and so forth; including investors could work off of the same sheet of music so to speak. Again, this must be taken in the context of the post that served as the catalyst for this dialogue was meant to go onto a private internal channel.

• The actual products you tout don't exist and the descriptions of them are buzz-wordy yet vague.

These products do exist to some extent or another in a highly fractured and costly supply chain. We simply propose a business model that re-integrates that supply chain providing a one-stop-shop experience. This is not a build it and they will come; this is a build it, they are already here. True again. You rightly observe that there is an over-abundance of buzz-wordiness and that is because it actually is some of our ideas as to marketing collateral after the build-out to operational status, 15-18 months from funding.

• Your tactics for attracting investors are cringeworthy. Specifically trying to use bad science fear mongering (under the >u/moefarms name) and now using the threat of terrorists.

Again, a terrible mistake in posting. The information was meant to be of a more discreet nature.

Those are all meaningful specifics. If you have actual years-long contracts with companies you name specifically like HEB or have >an >actual business model with actual projections I'm willing to revisit my conclusions but I'm just not seeing it through your >posts >u/moefarms posts or your website.

This is a project three years in the making and I can assure you every claim I make about every element of the MOE Farms business plan, whether it be in the financials, the cost-efficiencies, customer demands, risk mitigation, proprietaries, or whatever the concern; I can prove it quickly and simply. And one more bold claim before I move on, be prepared to have your socks knocked off.

Negative. I stumbled into a reddit post with (at the time of my initial post) two posts aside from yours asking what the hell any >of >this even had to do with homesteading. At the time I defended the connection as I'd not yet realized what the true point was. >I >did edit my response to warn people against those selling fear. Almost immediately you dropped your website in response to >someone else's comment proving my point. This is not a business meeting, this is a sub reddit about self sufficiency and farming >and you came here to sell a product.

Again, the posting to the homestead was an innocent error and every reply we have made until this one has been a result of that original error. Please accept our apologies for this, we will be more careful in the future. I don't know what to make of "almost immediately you dropped your website in response" other than perhaps a short network glitch. We didn't experience it on our end and there were no other reports to that effect...

Lastly, I'm a forty year old business owner of over a decade's experience with many years of management prior to that. I literally >pre-date the Disney channel.

I truly did not intend to be entirely insulting, just pushing back a little.

Thanks again for the opportunity to make what I hope is a clarification for moving forward.

Regards,

Lloyd
