We grow produce in large and diverse organic gardens. We eat, preserve, and market via roadside stand and farmers' markets. We raise poultry for meat and eggs. We maple sugar and have honeybees. We maintain our own wood lot, which provides our heat & building materials. We have built our semi-solar powered house and barn. There are always assorted carpentry projects.
not the best place to learn about communal living, farming full circle ground to market successfully. they just use you as farm labor and profit 100% on product and profit, and are just hobby farmers, who told us that you make "zero dollars on your taxes farming, and cant make it as small farmers because of coporate market subsidies"This experience tried to teach us hopelessness and failed economics, so I wouldn't recommend it, because there are places that offer small farmers hope, and successfull diversified cooperative modles like burdock gathering, local sprouts cafe coop portland maine, models that should be done in every community where we can walk to.
