Prince,
That’s simply too general a question. Most farms are considered businesses, and unless you run a non-profit there aren’t many grants for starting a business, whether it’s a farm, a restaurant, or a strip club. I suggest you look at the financing resources available at http://www.beginningfarmers.org/funding-resources/.

Lyle,
Check out the Starting a Farm page, the Financing (Loans/Grants) page, or e-mail me at beginningfarmers@gmail.com and we can talk more in depth about the steps you need to take to get the resources you need.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your site
when you could be giving us something informative to read?

I simply don’t have the time. I’m trying to finish a PhD, support my family, and administer this site among many other things. Unfortunately the website is not something that pays particularly well. I also don’t think you fully explored the site, because I do have a number of essays and more extensive posts on it. How about you hit me back when you have a website with 3000 posts and 20 informational pages that you are doing as a hobby.
