Why Farming? Why Now?

This is a time of tremendous opportunity in the agricultural industry. Consumers are paying attention to where their food comes from, and food insecurity is a major issue. Various levels of government are trying to create conditions that will foster industry growth while identifying and removing roadblocks that constrain farmers. The work may be hard and the hours long, but the rewards are real and substantial. Farming is one of the few industries where you can literally watch your business grow.
