Part 7/8:
Though still early in the season, Andrew shares his vision for the future: to continue adding newer hoop houses yearly to increase crop production capability and shift towards a fully automated irrigation system. His goal isn't just about expanding; it aligns with making the farming process easier and more sustainable in the long run.
Reflecting on his experience, Andrew emphasizes that farming is not just about produce; it's about cultivating relationships, understanding the land, and encouraging others to take the leap. His story serves as both an inspiration and a roadmap for aspiring farmers seeking ways to build a successful market farm without incurring debt or sacrificing work-life balance.
