    HOW I BUILT A $100K FARM BUSINESS IN 3 YEARS (Step-by-Step)

    🔸"11 QUESTIONS" Business PLANNING WORKSHEETS: https://bit.ly/11PlanningQuestions

    In May of 2020 I had the desire to farm for profit. I had no industry connections, no farming background... I did not even own any land! 3 years later, by God's grace, my farm business grossed a little under $100k within one calendar year. This is farm business only, not media income. This is a simple business model that anyone can follow... and it does not require thousands of dollars in expensive advertising. In this video I outline the 3 year process of building and promoting my sheep farm business on 23 acres. I hope that a look at my thoughts and strategy help you do the same for yourself!

    Practical Marketing Solutions for Farms and Small Businesses with Myrna Greenfield

    Practical Marketing Solutions for Farms and Small Businesses with Myrna Greenfield

    One of the missions that Good Food brands strive for is sustainability. But in order to foster sustainability, especially in the field of agriculture—the genesis of the Good Food movement, we need to support the ones who cultivate it: our farmers. While farmers are undoubtedly great at growing fresh and healthy produce, finding sustainable ways for their products to reach the tables of their target market isn’t always an innate skill.

    This is where Myrna Greenfield comes into play as the “good egg” who helps farms and farmers in need. As the “top egg” of Good Egg Marketing, a company she hatched in 2010 that offers professional advice to small food-related businesses and other non-profit organizations. Over the years, Myrna has worked with several farmers, and she discovered one common problem: planning their marketing strategy can be daunting for farmers.

    In this episode, Myrna shares some practical marketing solutions that farmers and other small businesses can use to build loyal customers and increase revenue.

    • The simplest possible advice you could give is to create a consistent look for your labels. - Myrna Greenfield

    • I enjoy being in this sector and getting a chance to work with the small producers and help them figure out ways to tell their stories more effectively. - Myrna Greenfield

    Key Points From This Episode:

    • Good Egg Marketing hatched from Myrna Greenfield’s idea to combine marketing services for farms, farm markets, and food-related brands.
    • Farmers are the clients closest to Myrna’s heart as she appreciates the work that goes into the farms.
    • Justamere Tree Farm’s label is one of the examples of how she applied simple and effective tweaks for the business.
    • Myrna’s speed marketing plan fits farms that may get overwhelmed with developing marketing plans.

    The “Amos Miller” story has gained momentum around the web as the USDA has restrained and raided his organic farming operation in Bird in Hand, PA. Amos miller produces chemical free grass fed beef, pork, chicken, dairy, and fermented foods; distributing to his customer base of 4,000. Here are 3 facts that reveal what is really happening at Miller’s Organic Farm. 1. The USDA is specifically targeting Miller’s Organic meat processing operation, not his entire farm. Amos Miller processes and distributes beef, poultry, and pork which he processes in one of his self-made processing facilities. Animals are processed under the inspection and oversight of Amos Miller and not the USDA. According to USDA regulations, meat must be processed under the direct oversight of a USDA agent if it is going to be distributed direct to consumer. This regulation give the USDA direct control of the farm to consumer meat supply. However, setting the element of control aside, processing at a USDA facility poses problems for Miller’s customers. USDA processing facilities spray meat carcasses with citric acid, a chemical compound that produces allergic reactions in some of Miller’s customers. 2. MIller’s operation is healing not harming the public. 3. Miller is not being allowed to choose his own attorney. Federal Judge Edward G. Smith ruled that in the USDA vs. Amos Miller case “Amos Miller does not have the right to choose his own attorney”. Miller is taking his appeal to Third Circuit in Philadelphia. Miller states: “we have come to realize that the only way to save our hard working farmers and healthy foods is to legally challenge the government”.

    I urge you to subscribe to my newsletter below for uncensored updates and please click on this video for a more in depth look at the regulations governing our meat supply chain.
