🌖 crop planning as a nights and weekend farmer🌓 a zine for non-full time farmers, like us!!
I (anita) made this zine as a way to accept and celebrate our farm situation - that we all have other off farm jobs and that’s ok!! we are still farmers and we got some pretty great tricks. I also wanted to share what we’ve learned along the way in case it can help / encourage other nights and weekend farmers.
check out this zine full of crop planning wisdom, jokes, horoscopes and reality checks from the past 5 years as a moonlighting farmer. I hope you enjoy it!
