Creating The Minimum Viable Farm - $20,000 on a 2000 Square Foot Micro-Farm - The Urban Farmer - Season 2 - Week 5

What would the 2000 sq.ft. farm,
let's call it a micro-farm, look like?

How could you best utilize that
space and take many of the techniques that Curtis uses on his
current 1/2 acre urban farm, to make the micro-farm generate some
decent cash flow.

How much could you make on a
micro-farm of just 2000 square feet?

Really it depends on what you are
growing and who you are selling it to. But grossing 20,000 on that
2000 square feet isn't crazy talk. And even half that, $10,000, is
a realistic target to shoot for.

When you think about that, that's
a pretty lucrative given the space involved. I think most people
can get access to 2000 sq.ft.  That's essentially fits well
within your average American lawn.

The 2000 square foot micro-farm
has a lot of things going for it.  It's manageable, yet
scaleable. It's big enough to matter to start you thinking and
implementing a lot of these systems, yet it's not over whelming. It
makes a great transition plot for someone looking to transition
into farming or just get their feed wet.

Given that today will be a case
study looking at the 2000 sw ft micro farm.

We'll break down what this farm
might look like. How you would want to manage it. What types of
crops you would want to focus on, and put some a basic framework in
place that you can build off of.

As, you see, you can do a lot with
2000 square feet, and it might not be that small after
all.

It's currently April 19,
