Construction, heavy equipment, and transportation. We’re in the process of pivoting to small scale farming and homesteading. It’s been an adventure, ultimately I’d like to have a line of value added products made largely from farm produced resources. Like anything else, it’s effortful working through regulatory briar patches while still staying true to the grass root ideals.
Regarding assisting people, what I look for are people at 100% effort who just can’t quite get on the sustainable side of the resource curve. Sometimes it’s a car that keeps breaking that they can’t afford to replace. It’s finding those few things that will allow them to move forward. It takes time, and a lot of knowledge about the circumstance and honesty. So many interactions between people these days are curated. It’s difficult to know real people well enough to really be helpful.
