Corporate Executive Quits to Become a Market Farmer - Here's What Happened (S1W21)
Description
In this episode of The Urban Farmer, we shine the spotlight on Rob Kaiser, who walked away from a successful corporate career to pursue market farming...all while still working 50-60 hours a week at his day job.
Rob shares the real challenges of transitioning to farming: from dealing with crop failures to finding what actually sells at market. The episode also talks about practical strategies on how to start a farming career without going broke, why focusing on business metrics matters more than ideology, and how to build the community support that will sustain you through the tough times.
