An Excellent Resource for Information on Creating various Cooperative Projects between Farms and I highly Recommend taking the time to go page by page, read thoroughly, question until you understand
…because heading in the right direction in the beginning may save a lot of time and effort later and
better insure success!
Here is a quote to better understand why from the author…
“There is no one model for “cooperative farming.” You can form separate businesses or one business. You can share land, or farm as neighbors, or farm together in a community or a region. We need a whole range of models and solutions for working together. We are learning to design our own tools and methods to match our scale and soil. In the same way, we need the knowledge to design our own business structures and agreements, to fit our unique circumstances of person and place. The intention of this guidebook is to introduce that knowledge.”
…author quote from Faith Gilbert
