Title: Another newbie!
Post by: clint1961 on April 06, 2010, 08:12:46 pm

Hi all, don't know if I belong here really, I don't actually grow anything but I work the spud harvester on a small local farm and take spuds to sell off my drive in lieu of pay!

Both me & my missus work the same, and are now looking to do the same with a local free range egg producer.

Feel that we are 'proxy' small farmers as we get to do all the hard graft without the problem of finding money for land!!

Hope you don't think we are interlopers but we do want help & advice on our spuds & eggs.

Jerry

Hello and welcome.

I think thats a very good idea selling the potatoes, and hopefully the eggs too.  Hope it goes well.

Hi Jerry your idea of selling spuds off the drive and now eggs sounds very enterprising.  Welcome.  Hope you enjoy sharing your life with all of us.   :D
