I sell my over stock of plants via social media , over the past year I have been asked if I sell my harvest. The bulk of my recent plant buyers are local restaurant chefs looking for unusual tomatoes and herbs . My property isn't big enough to produce in bulk i don't think (.04 acres) and I have to grow in raised beds as far as produce but with the requests i am getting it makes me question the amount my small property can produce and i have an unheated greenhouse to where i may try. i have your book.
Targeted advertising is super effective.
Dude, you changed my life.
I like what you are saying on this video.
How about growing a good product and developing a reputation over time? Is this farming? Or is this a tech start up?
I love Instagram. It is amazingly easy to network on it. We're only here on YouTube because of Curt, lol, but the potential for reach here definitely seems amazing.
I always have motivation after watching your videos. You have the best strategies ever in farming especially for small scale famers like us.
It's funny that you say Twitter is for the over 35 crowd, because I have found Twitter to be the place for serious followers of my farm. In fact, those that get the concept of converting "lawns to farms" have Twitter accounts and those that don't get it, have facebook accounts. Instagram is awesome and has helped my farm a lot too. Curtis, when you say YouTube pays you, that's their monetization program, correct? Are your channels monetized? I am glad you broke it down to 1. have a website, 2. have an instagram account. That is actually the choices I made in social media marketing.
Our first post was 12 hours ago….oh the irony!
Hey Curtis! Loving the videos and what all of you guys have been doing with your market gardens. Thank you so much for sharing your stories and experience on YouTube.
Are there any farmers you would recommend for someone to listen to or watch/read that are located in Texas, or more specifically central Texas?
Also I have my doubts about its viability right now in the central Texas area, do you have any thoughts? I guess that's normal considering I grew up surrounded by large farmlands.
Great info! Thank you Curtis.
