This Exact System Has Helped Many New Entrepreneurs Bootstrap* A Successful Market Garden Business

*Bootstrap: To promote and develop by use of one's own initiative and work

Scott Kelland here, owner of award-winning New Terra Farm, and former Business Planning and Performance Consultant to a bunch of private- and public-sector organizations.

Why do many people struggle to launch a successful small farm business? In my experience here are the common challenges:

Creating A Framework. It can be a challenge to get your vision on paper. Figuring out planning, marketing, management and production can be daunting.You have to be able to make it work 'on paper' before you can make it work in the real world.

Having Sufficient Capital. Where will the funds come from to launch and sustain your business until the revenue comes in? Dreams are great but don't pay the bills.

Overcoming Fear. You have probably heard the statistic ‘95% of new businesses fail within the first 5 years’. Does not sound like good odds, right?

Are one or  more of these challenges holding you back from your dream of a successful small farm business?

THEN IMAGINE THIS...

  • You have a thriving business. You actually have customers on a waiting list to buy from you.
  • You get to decide how much money you want to make every year, and you have systems for planning and marketing and management that will get you there.
  • You found a way to get started, even though you didn’t have a lot of money to launch a business.
  • You found a business model that showed how your customers could fund your start-up.
  • So you took the leap and launched your business.
  • And that business is still growing. You are making a right living doing something you enjoy.

Does that sound too good to be true?

IT'S ACTUALLY MY STORY.

A couple years after we bought New Terra Farm I was looking for a way to make more money on my small property. After a lot of reading and research I settled on a business model that promised to fulfill my small farm dreams.

This model showed me how I could 'bootstrap' my business without a lot of cash money up front.

It showed me how I could basically lock-in my customers.

And it provided the ability to start at a level I could manage as a 'newbie', then grow as big as I desired as I gained experience. My first market garden was about 1/4 acre. A couple years later we had grown that garden to feed more than 90 families each week,

I bet you want to know what this 'secret' is right?

Here's the 'Secret Sauce': Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is the BEST Model for the Small Grower!

CSA solves many start-up problems.  In the Community Supported Agriculture model customers subscribe to your market garden , paying in advance to receive a share of vegetables each week throughout the growing season.

You can have cash in your pocket in 60 days from 'start'!

This advance payment let's you BOOTSTRAP your garden i.e. start up without a lot of cash of your own. When I figured this out, I was actually able to start my business with just $300 for some promotional flyers - and I put that on a credit card!

So now you have a 'cash cushion' to get you through that busy start-up phase.

Here's something else most business books don't  tell you: CSA gardens typically have the highest net income of all garden types. You can keep more of your sales dollar with CSA.

And, (very important to a new grower) you can start small and grow as you learn! My first garden was less than a quarter-acre in size.

Over time the garden got bigger, and we subsequently grew to serve more than 90 families. 

This concept is easy enough to grasp.  But... you still need to know 'the details' of what you are doing, or failure is still a possibility.

If you haven't figured out enough of those 'details'  yet to give you confidence you can start a successful market garden business,  it's not your fault.

It's hard to find good practical information (from somebody who had actually done it) about launching a successful CSA Market Garden.

That's why  I set out to write the market garden business book I wish I had when I started. In this course you will discover effective business strategies tailored to your farm. Learn to create a strong customer base, price your produce for profit, and manage your financial growth.

It's my way of helping to grow the new growers the world desperately needs.

You Can Go From 'Zero' To 'PAYING CUSTOMERS' In 60 Days (Or Less)
Even On A Small Piece Of Land!

HERE'S THE KEY: Market gardening isn't just about planting seeds; it's about launching a  business.

There are lots of gardening books out there, but it's hard to find good information about starting a successful market garden BUSINESS.

It seems that gardeners don't write about business, and business guys don't know or care about small enterprises like a market garden.

So it's not surprising if you are still looking for a way to launch a successful business on your small property.

95% of New Businesses Fail - BUT THAT'S NOT YOU!

The Whole Thing Can be Explained in 4 Simple Steps

Launching any business is a serious undertaking.  Remember that '95% of businesses fail within the first five years' statistic.

But here's the thing: That failure is usually caused by not understanding the 4 essential elements of business success that I'll  explain just down the page.

I've assembled a step-by-step guide that can empower anyone to:

  • Build a business on their own terms
  • Start part-time and build to a full-time income
  • Make a right living on your small property
  • Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with taking control of your financial future

Hundreds of people have bought this material and used it to build a real market garden business of their own. 

So I'm convinced anyone who wants to build some financial freedom can benefit greatly from this course.

Explained: My 4-Step System for Market Garden Success

The basic idea is simple, and can be applied to just about any business - but you might be surprised at the businesses that never figure this out. My 'Bootstrap Market Gardening' success system can be laid out in 4 steps:

1. PLANNING is the fun part: you decide how much money you want to make from your market garden, and how many customers you need to make that happen;

2. MARKETING is reaching out and finding those customers and telling them what you have to offer and inviting them to buy. TIP: there is an easy, non-sleazy way to get your customers to sign up. And, they pay you in advance for the season!

3. MANAGEMENT means answer a few questions about how you will run your market garden business. How much space will you need, and where to find it? How will you organize garden work? TIP: you can find space for your garden even if you don't own a farm.

4. PRODUCTION means lying out your garden efficiently and growing, harvesting and processing your delicious veggies for appreciative customers.

This is key: if you want to be a successful market gardener ... then planning, marketing and management are just as important as growing great veggies!

When it's set out like this, it's pretty easy to see the system I'm suggesting for you. In fact, the whole concept fits on one page ( just like this ).

Read on and you will understand why I said there is no course like it, built 'from the ground up' just for the new or soon-to-be market gardener!

There are Lots of Gardening Books Out There ... This is a Book about RAPIDLY LAUNCHING a Successful Market Gardening Business

bmgp 2022 cdYour practical step by step guide to start-up, market and manage a successful CSA market garden


Times are tough for a lot of people right now. Many businesses have closed, or operating under restrictions. 

Through no fault of their own, people are out of work or underemployed. Maybe you are one of them. 

I  get it. Why do you think I HAD to find  way to make some money on my farm?

But there is a silver lining. Adversity can create opportunity.

This can be a great time to start a business on your small property, growing great food for appreciative customers.

If you have doubts that RIGHT NOW is a great time to start a market gardening business, you just have to remember one very important thing:

No matter what, people need to eat!

In the next few minutes I'll share with you how I came to build a real business on my small property. And how I did it without a lot of money or resources of my own to start.

You can even start part-time and make a great 'side hustle' income!

Here's where I work. My 'commute' is about 150 yards due north from the farmhouse.

I Wasn't Kidding About the 'Award-Winning Farm' Bit...

Way back when we launched our first  Bootstrap CSA Market Garden, the Ministry of Agriculture in Ontario was running a contest for innovative farming ideas.

Suzie talked me into writing about our business model for this contest. The contest judges decided we had something valuable in this model and lo and behold, we won! 

You can see in the snapshot below that Suzie grabbed the award plaque, because she said it was her idea. I snagged the $5,000 prize check; - )

There were 255 farms in the running for a prize, by the way.

I'm sharing this not to brag (much ) but rather so you the idea that a couple of 'newbies' could create and apply a successful, repeatable model to put more money in our pocket from our market garden. 

If a forty-something couple who were NOT born farmers could do this, you can too!

Along the way, 'Bootstrap Market Gardening' also won us the $5,000 Premier's Award for Agri-Food innovation.

Market Gardening Success Depends On The Right Systems!

There is more to a successful market garden business that just being a good grower:

  • You need to learn how to find customers.
  • You need to learn how to set goals and plan priorities.
  • You need to learn how to manage cash flow. 
  • And you need to be able to do all that while still keeping your garden in full production throughout the season.

I learned this stuff over a couple of decades of experience both on the farm and in the business world.

Yes I was that 'business guy'. And my area of practice was designing and improving systems. I used that expertise on my own farm.

And I've written 'Bootstrap Market Gardening' to give you a head start on this learning curve!

Because, let's face it, where else are you going to find this practical and useful information to help you start the business of your dreams on your small property?

What's Unique About 'Bootstrap Market Gardening'?

'Bootstrap Market Gardening' is not some 'theoretical' model.

I guarantee you won't find this practical information, designed specifically for market gardeners, anywhere else. 

I can show you, step-by-step how to start-up, market, and manage a successful market garden business, even on a very small property (and a very small budget!).

But you don't have to take my word for it. Check it out for yourself. Take your time to go through the material, up to 12 months if you like.
