Market Farming

Margaret,

If you have good farm insurance, you may want to contact a local 4H or
horticultural club.  They may want enough to make those paths for you in
exchange for the plants they dig!  Kids are always looking to make a few
dollars.  Why not a berry patch in their yard?

I certainly miss the patches I grew up around.  I am glad you are finding
ways to care for them and not just eradicate them or allow them to die of
disease.

I have heard the patches that supported our large family all winter are now
mowed or died from disease/misuse.  A definite loss IMHO for future
generations.  It was one of the few FUN things we did in those days as a
family.  Sorry to see other families not enjoying those old patches.
