Salad Mix & Gourmet Mushrooms:
These were our most profitable crops at the farm.
We grew them because they go from seed/spore to harvestable product in under 30 days and the needed infrastructure investments can be paid back in 3 months. At any scale.
They enabled us to bootstrap a 16ha agroforestry farm with €30.000, debt-free and without government subsidies.
It is this same freedom that allowed us to stop growing them the moment we realised these are not the health foods they are portrayed to be. A notion conventional farmers simply cannot be open to. They cannot take the sunk cost. #farmstr
