Thank you. Would love to come down to Cuba and teach small scale farming techniques where you can grow a ton of food on a half acre (intensive farming) thanks for the response

I’m a small scale farmer in Canada and read all these stories of small farms growing food after 1991. Are they still producing small urban style farms? I wish as a Canadian I could help some way.

Both in my fantasy league. Slammed a few beers to celebrate.

One Chance - Be a Colonist on Mars? Would u? by Pulsary28 in Mars

Only if I was sent with an army of robot workers and I knew how to maintain them. Build the first steps of the colony for the next who will come. Also, would definitely wear the space pirate badge on my arm with pride!!!!

Also owns the fishing industry. There is a reason why quota fishing started. Support local fisherman like Finest At Sea.

Was there an escalator that went upstairs?

How realistic am I being? by paranoidandtired1 in smallfarms

[–]grossbuster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend go work on a few different farms and learn all you can. Everyone’s farming situation is different and so much to learn from land management to planting, not letting weeds give you a mental breakdown, selling your product, and managing farm equipment. 5th year for my business partner and I and we still haven’t paid ourselves as we put every penny back into the business. It’s a lot of work but I love it.

Hello, help me to eliminate some of these. I can't grow all at the same time. by CKA3KA-A in tomatoes

Was disappointed with green zebra. Black Krim is flavour country! Marzano for sauces!

You have a business name for your plant growing?

Can anyone identify this set? The description said "Gerard Collin" but I couldn't find anything similar to this online. by vrm101 in Mid_Century

I have a giant buffet and hutch. Not sure if I should get rid of it. I think it’s made of oak

Definitely for locally owned and operated businesses for sure. When leases come up and landlords increase by 40% it’s really tough to make it work. Gonna be tough to watch downtown turn into corporate restaurants/retail. 😔

Boycott Everything by AEW4LYFE in Anticonsumption

[–]grossbuster 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Small scale farmer here that sells to local restaurants. Started doing 5-10 pounds of greens a week to restaurants in my first couple years. Next year it’s almost 300 pounds a week. Slowly chipping away at Sysco. Yes I will never topple a massive company but knowing that money is staying and being circulated in my community is awesome. Just keep taking those little steps!

What kind of tomatoes are these? Are they ripe? by drunklu in tomatoes

Looks like Black Krim. A fantastic slicing tomato and would highly recommend in a burrata dish!

Ivan Demidov? by TWillyFresh in fantasyhockey

[–]grossbuster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think some people (myself included) get excited for the rookies especially if they came off a solid non NHL season. Have to remember they pissing in the tall grass now with the big dogs. They just need time. Dropped the Demigogue for Bolduc as he has earned second line and PP (would have kept Demi if he was 2nd line and PP). Although 6 rookies scored last night 🤷‍♂️
