TBF 045 :: 5 Tips for a Shoe-String Budget Farmer, Meat CSA, and a Hard Lesson Learned
Good news for all you iOS users. You now should be able to download "The Beginning Farmer Show" on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod! I finally tracked down the issue that was keeping that from happening, so hopefully this will be more convenient for some. One of the questions I get all of the time is how do you pay for the farm. There are plenty of questions about raising livestock, marketing, or working the land, but above all people are most interested in how to make it work financially. My advice is always simple ... save up your money and pay for the farm. We do have a manageable mortgage, but when it comes to the things that make the farm go (livestock, equipment, structures, etc.) I make it a point to pay for them instead of financing them. That does mean doing things on a shoe-string sometimes or at least making some savings in other areas. Here are five things that I've found to be able to farm on a shoe-string. 5 Tips For Farming on a Shoe-String
