Understanding your goals

Understanding your goals in farming is a bit like figuring out why you want to run a marathon or start a business. It’s not just about the “what” (growing corn, raising chickens, etc.), but also the “why.” Are you in it for profit, for self-sufficiency, to heal the land, or maybe just because you love the work? Clear goals shape every decision: what you plant, how you care for your land, how you market your products, even how you measure success.
