This comment seems to the opposite of what this list is intended for. I
thought this was the market-farming list.

Growing is the least of our worries. Anyone can do that and there are tons
and tons of gardening lists. The thing that sets market farming apart is
only one thing ... marketing. And marketing has to be more than 50% of the
whole.

Sometimes, I honestly get the impression that the list is really a gardening
list:) Shouldn't we concentrate more on the marketing issues which is what
market farming is all about?

We do a lot more than market farming here at Misty Ridge Farm and I expect
others do to. Some even do commodity production and sell into the wholesale
market. We even do beef stockers. But we have other lists that deal with
that subject.

Sincerely,
