Part 5/8:
Collaborate and Learn from Others
Networking and collaboration within the farming community can also provide invaluable insights and support. By connecting with others interested in farming, prospective farmers can share resources, experiences, and even costs, reducing individual financial burdens.
Developing Your Farm Budget
After gaining experience and developing a business plan, it’s time to create a detailed farm budget. This budget should include all projected expenses associated with operating the farm in its first year and beyond. Jesse encourages aspiring farmers to remain realistic about the unpredictability of farming and to view the budget as an evolving document rather than a fixed one.
