Is small farming profitable?

[Hotzcatz]

Sure, you can come help farm any time you want to! The beginnings of the farm aren't likely to be fun, though, since I suspect it will consist of fencing and planting trees. I am planning a huge vegetable garden although that will just be for family and friends since selling vegetables grown on the ground is under a different insurance classification than fruits from trees.

I don't think I will be able to grow lavender since it will get too hot during the summers. Lavender likes to grow at a higher elevation and this is only about 400 feet or so. Rosemary will grow well, I'll put in a hedge of that stuff, but lavender would probably just linger around for a bit and then disappear. At least, that's what I suspect, but I'm not the best at growing lavender. What conditions are best for that?
