You grow, raise, or harvest contracts with neglected trees on a small plot. Restaurants, a CSA, a market stall, or classes pay you — line up a buyer before you scale.
This is small-scale growing. You grow, raise, or harvest contracts with neglected trees. You get paid by restaurants, a CSA, a market stall, or classes. Filming can be a second crop if you treat it as labor. A normal week is production, harvest, sales, and records — hours that still have to feed you. Soil, water, and zoning come before livestock videos. Start smaller than the internet. Weather can veto the year.
A bag, a knife, and public land where it is legal. Permit if required. First restaurant or market sale often 2–6 weeks (USDA).
Each required material has a matching shop listing — photo, price, and a way to add it to the cart.
Land access (own, lease, or use)
Land-access consult
Land-access consult. A first consult on own / lease / use-agreement paths for a plot. Advice toward a real agreement — not the deed.
Hand tools
Hand-tool starter kit
Hand-tool starter kit. A tote of the first hand tools a one-person trade actually uses: drivers, knives, tape, and a small hammer. Not a contractor van build-out.
Irrigation
Irrigation starter
A drip-line starter: timer, tubing, and emitters for a small plot. Irrigation, not a well.
Harvest totes
Ventilated harvest totes that stack in a car. For greens and market days — not a tractor.
A shady place to wash
Portable wash station
Portable wash station. A shade tent corner with a jerrycan sink and soap for washing produce or hands. A wash station, not a kitchen.
