This man is my hero. Starting a new venture is never easy. Doubt is a constant. Work beyond human endurance and not enough hours in the day.

This farmer works a full time off farm job. He plants, tends and hand harvests 35 plus pounds of microgreens each week.
.
.
This year we're expanding our horizons into market gardening. 2 acres of formerly commercially farmed land that needs lots of life infused into the tired dirt. He has a garden fork, spade and wagon for tools. And his bare hands.
.
.
He's exhausted. He feels despair at times. He has 5 fifty foot by two and a half foot beds loaded with leafy greens. With only a scissors to harvest it.
.
.
Starting a new venture is hard. Really hard. And that's when courage, commitment, and deep strength of character matters.
.
.
This man is my hero. He's your hero. He's one of many such Farmers, men, women and kids, working the land for the love and commitment to do better. Rejuvenate towards sustainability. Feed people real food.

Encourage any farmer you meet. Thank them. Sincerely and honestly. It matters.
