Looking forward to hearing more about this. The sheer size of it is well beyond my means but from sheer theoretical stance you've got this down better than most I've heard (and an interview you did on some show or other about mycelium is why I started following your work in the first place). Curious if you've heard of Jean-Martin Fortier, the author of The Market Gardner. I ask mostly because he's one of the folks I've looked at for smaller scale farming, who's really big on organic no-till farming using a walk behind, rather than conventional tractor. Dude was pulling in over a million in revenue on something like 4 acres well before the pandemic. He's got a channel over on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/@TheMarketGardeners.

Not quite the same sort of thing you're looking at, especially given some of his use of things like tube houses, but still a focus on sustainability and use of things like hedgerows to cultivate birds and other creatures to handle pest control that brought him to mind when you got into the Cathedral on this show.

Yeah, I have his book. He got bank-rolled to build the 4 acre Ferme Quatre-Temps. Found him through Curtis Stone. That was all back before I fell into Bitcoin. That dude is a beast.
