Episode notes
Choose Optimal Farm Latitude
- Choose farm locations around the 38th to 40th latitudes for optimal growing seasons and climate.
- Avoid farms too close to the equator or too far north as they have extreme heat or cold and poor soil quality.
Prioritize Quality Soil Types
- Prioritize farms with limestone or glacial soils as they offer the best fertility and structure.
- Avoid farms with poor soil as improving them with compost on large scales is impractical.
Buy Farms With Infrastructure
- Buy farms with existing infrastructure like barns, fences, and water systems to ease transition.
- Avoid raw land as building infrastructure can take seven years and is costly for beginners.
