Hey there Jon,
Do you retail any of your seed?
I'd be interested in discussing.

Thanks,

We are able to get multiple isolations on such small acreage with
certain crops but not others. Things that primarily thought not
exclusively self-pollinate are usually good at around 150 ft
isolation, things like this include tomatoes and beans. Things that
are insect and wind pollinated we either grow only one variety a year
or if possible, isolate them in time, like planting an early corn in
black plastic and planting a late corn at a late planting date.
Planting in our greenhouse with screening over the windows gives us
another insect pollinator isolation (this only works with
self-pollinators, something like cucurbits would have trouble.)
