Wow that looks so nice this brings back memories the music is so therapeutic and fitting too
How much does this guy spending on propane heating? Someone needs to tell him about mining computers? Haha
> "he doesn't think like a farmer. I don't mean that to degrade farmers…"
Yea you do!
Calling him an entrepreneur is just a hipster way of saying he's better than those "old timers' who just don't get it. You know them as "farmers."
I'm sick of everyone who starts a business claiming the mantle of entrepreneur so they can claim superiority. And while we're at it "moving forward" is redundant, you CAN'T go backwards in time.
Wow. This is really interesting. I want to see how they built that greenhouse.
41K profit on nearly half a million on sales is not really a business. its more of a slave job or a not for profit business.
Dumb shits in this, and other, comment sections are about to discover what actual wealth is.
Food idiots. Food. Civilization ceases to exist without it. Food shortages start in the next 6-12 months. Wait for it.
Great farming model. Smart people! I would love to know how their business has been affected by COVID-19?
l am impressed with the high tunnels organization. Even more impressed with the way you run your operation from the financial standpoint. Good job! Thanks for sharing.
how do you water all those microgreens?
and how to get it consistent all micro greens have grown evenly
I am from Western Michigan. I had no idea this farm was in Petoskey. The market there includes a great many second homes for wealthy people from downstate (Grand Rapids, Metro Detroit). So supermarket selection in Petoskey stores looks much more like what you would find in a wealthy suburb of a big city. The total number of residents doesn't include these thousands of people who spend a lot on food
petosky = peh-tah-ski.. not pe-toe-ski

Hi Curtis, do you welcome volunteers that want to learn? Greetings from frozen Calgary! Loving BC…Keep it up!
Grow it and they will come.
Is that cannabis in the background??
No need for black plastic?
Do you have to have an LCC and do you have to pay taxes on profit?
Didn't know Adam Sandler was a Farmer.
Very kool, I’m in Gaylord which is near there
These folks live in my hood! Great people.
I would love to but it’s hard to figure out where to start
Anybody notice the 4 weed plants direclty behind him?
Professional Open Source Farming! Thank you brother!
That's awesome to hear Brian is running his business so well and honoring by paying his employees very well now the employees will have respect and honor to work and to work hard for this man they will be loyal to him and to the job and do the job with high integrity
Loved your pronunciation of petoskey, haha loves the vid. Also it’s puh-tos-key
I saw recently on another channel where they dealt with the cold climate issue by digging down into the earth to take advantage of the earths steady temperatures. That way you have to heat less in the winter and cool less in the summer. https://youtu.be/ZD_3_gsgsnk
He's essentially paying himself as much as his employees despite the fact he's assuming all the risk. That seems foolish to me. If nothing else, I feel like that would lead to burn out. That much risk for so little reward (41K?) seems haphazard. But if he can keep scaling maybe.
$40K a year is well paid? Maybe in Michigan. Edit: At that pay level, I'm expecting a lot of labor turnover? As a business owner, I see employee turnover as an ongoing challenge. It's a balance between keeping employees and paying too much.
