Farmers are going to bitch about something that's just the way it's been and it will not change. They'll bitch day in day out. They'll bitch about the same thing for awhile or move on if there is something better to bitch about until that particular bitch grows old then move back to the starting bitch or maybe bitch about several things if they think it will make them feel better. Bitchers they are and bitchers they will remain and it will never change and that you can take to the bank.
This is what some are bitching about now.
But she's the kind of farmer the Obama administration wants more of, and that raises alarms among some colleagues in conventional agriculture. They worry they'll be harmed by the Agriculture Department's new focus on small farms and encouragement local production of fruits and vegetables.
A female agricultural terrorist wreaking havoc in da cornfield you betcha.
Personally I would like to see the corn belt filled with this type of agriculture. There are opinions from the other side that say vegetable production like this would not even make a dent in what is consumed. I disagree and think that in the future this is where and how most of our vegetables will be grown.
That is if the bitchers can pull their bigoted heads out of there asses and contribute. Don't count on it.
Good for you!
ReplyDeleteThere are many in N.C. doing the same - even small timers sharing communal veggie plots!
The word is spreading (and who wants to eat oversprayed, toxic veggies anyway?).
And we will make a dent!
Okay, a small dent. But it will be dented!

Maybe there's hope for the cornfield yet . . .
ReplyDeleteIt could be a big dent if the effort was made Suzan but we won't.
ReplyDeleteMaybe a wee bit jeg but these guys are afraid of anything unless they think it means $'s for sure in their pocket.
luv it! I'd eat from the small veggie farmer everyday rather than from agribusiness.
