I'm all for it, and Keeau is sensible. We should push on this. In this climate stuff planted today is going to be up in two months, so we got to be thinking hard now.
The microclimate thing is going to be key. I'm at 2500 feet, and I'm certain I can grow spinich, kale, bok chow, chards, and that sort of thing better than down the hill, as it won't bolt so fast. Likewise, you all will do better with fruits, tomatoes and such. On those lines, I'm planting at this point more of that stuff than I can handle, as I figure that will be the farm aspect. Also, I've got a lot of coffee and tea going, and while it's all a ways off, perhaps as not as far as I think, and if it worked out it's no big deal to hide another dozen trees on my 3 acres.
Let's get on it!
