Thoughts of a Farmer. We are a small farm supplying Eggs, Meat, and Vegetables in our local area, around 75 miles is our reach. I watch all the major corporate farms operate around us and think how they run off pure money and if the banking system broke one day food production would be done in a few days later. Where a little farm like mine could keep operating for weeks or more without money from the bank. Think local food and small farms!
