In this video by Off Grid With Curtis Stone we learn how to start a farm with a small amount of money.
Taking a $5,000 budget, Curtis chooses the essentials he would spend that money on, with the goal being to generate some profit which can then be used to expand the business. Getting it airborne is the first priority!
Starting on a small budget enables you to test the marketplace and forces you to make good decisions. It can actually work out better than “starting with too much money”, which can often kill a project due to careless decisions. Curtis started his own farm with $7,000 but admits that some of that money ended up being wasted – so he’s helping you avoid those mistakes.
Curtis focuses on producing high value crops on a small plot. The yard behind him is 2000 sq ft and he states confidently that you can generate $20,000 in a growing season – so long as you grow the right things. He lets us in on his choices: Salad greens, fine herbs and baby root vegetables. He also has further videos listing his most profitable crops.
We learn that he sells to restaurants and farmers markets. Going direct to customers this way of course maximises profits.
With a small plot he states that you don’t need expensive machine tools and can do things by hand – however, when we get on to the tools and equipment section we learn that the “post-harvest area” is the most important place on the farm. Washing, drying, storing, weighing and packing are critical parts of the process.
A walk-in cooler is an absolute essential and is one of the major expenses – estimated cost around $1000. However many of his tools are home-made: We also see an interesting washing table – which looks home made. It’s simple – using 2x4s and 1/2″ galvanized steel mesh. It has a liner underneath that catches the water, which is then used for watering. A bubbler is a washing station for vegetables that uses a jacuzzi pump to swirl the water, which cleanses the veg. Next we see giant salad-spinners made from old Maytag washing machines!
Another essential is the quick-cut greens harvester that “turns 8 hours work into 45 minutes work”. The cost is around $500 to $700.
Next up, a wheeled seed planter. Cost very variable, between $100 and $600.
Finally we see a set of hand tools, including a shovel, bed rake, digging fork, stirrup hoe and a standard rake. On a small plot, you can do it with these, and avoid the expense of a roto-tiller.

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:
According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.
It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.
Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!
As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?
But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!
The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.
This gives you real water security!

What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)
After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.
As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.
Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises...
Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...
Most People Don't Have The Guts To Try This:
An amazing discovery in an abandoned house in Austin, Texas: A lost book of amazing survival knowledge, believed to have been long vanished to history, has been found in a dusty drawer in the house which belonged to a guy named Claude Davis.
Remember... back in those days, there was no electricity... no refrigerators... no law enforcement... and certainly no grocery store or supermarkets... Some of these exceptional skills are hundreds of years of old and they were learned the hard way by the early pioneers.
