Farming is not easy, not pretty, not wildly profitable. And I had no prior experience; then, why did I even get into it? I believe I felt a connection. Plus the challenge excited me - To be a successful farmer nowadays, one has to be equal parts entrepreneur and agronomist. As I dug into it, I also found farming to be fulfilling. That's how I branched into agriculture, as the Sanskrit aphorism "Vriksho Rakshati Rakshitaha" (Trees, when protected, protect you) took on a new meaning for me.

Pleasant surprise at peach orchard!
Who knew? Perhaps because of winter, I didn't notice that the ranch's previous owner was growing vines as a privacy hedge(?) behind the mobile house. Well, we could always use organic table grapes, right?
