It is 100% true that small farms can be profitable however small farms increasingly need to do further processing. Just selling vegetables to a Farmers Market may no longer be a sufficient business model. Just a single farmer by themselves faces a very hard farm life. To be the best that it can be a single farmer will be better with a group or a couple people focused on making it happen. Michael Kilpatrick is a farmer and educator who is passionate about providing farmers with tools and systems that they need to thrive. He is host of the Thriving Farmers podcast, founder of Small Farm University, and runs his own farm operation with his wife Savanah and their 4 children at the Farm on Central in Southwest Ohio. www.growingfarmers.com
