As it stands now, I donate/give away about 20-30% of what I produce, sell 30% and keep the rest. That’s why it’s something I do on the side, not my main income. Food stuff ends up at a pantry I like or with friends/family. Most of the wool goes to a lady from my church who makes stuff. I’d kind of like to learn more about doing the latter myself. Realistically though, I don’t really want to dedicate the time or bandwidth to it lol. I’d like to expand my current pickeling/canning setup and expand the space I use for vegetables. It’s a balance though. I want to keep it relatively small so because I don’t want to be a full time farmer. I’d like to get better at keeping bees and keep more, it’s hard to get them through winters. I could keep going on the little things I want to do for days. As well as the things I don’t because I know they’d get away from me. I definitely don’t want to end up putting my lady in a situation where she has to help out more just because I had an idea I couldn’t keep up with. But anyway, at it’s core, my vision for it is simple. Create high quality, clean food/products and always give away enough to make an impact. Apologies for the rambling I’ve been up for like 30 hours at this point.
