The GFP follows my start in agriculture as I seek advice from farmers from all over the land. I share my expertise in farm marketing, small farm business, and farming as a career while operating a farm myself.  The best way to learn how to farm is through other farmers. The guiding principle of the GFP is the documenting and free sharing of information. Whether you have been farming for years, you are a Homegrown Greenhorn, or you are starting to consider a career in agriculture, there is something we can all do to grow our farms.</itunes:summary><itunes:category text="Business"><itunes:category text="Management &amp; Marketing"/></itunes:category><itunes:category text="Games &amp; Hobbies"><itunes:category text="Hobbies"/></itunes:category><itunes:category text="Education"><itunes:category text="Training"/></itunes:category><itunes:category text="Society &amp; Culture"><itunes:category text="Personal Journals"/></itunes:category><itunes:category text="Technology"><itunes:category text="Podcasting"/></itunes:category><itunes:owner><itunes:email>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com</itunes:email><itunes:name>John Suscovich</itunes:name></itunes:owner><item><title>When Is a Chicken Fully Grown?

husband, and father to two beautiful girls. Ten years ago, I was living in 
New York City, working as a technician for a major television show. Then I 
took a life-changing, year-long, 6,000-mile road trip around North America 
– by bicycle – to discover how and why people farm. And now I run a farm 
brewery in rural northwest Connecticut.

It wasn’t easy for me to leave my first career in order to pursue 
agriculture, but I was deeply motivated to have a hand in the production of 
the food I eat: I figured, if we are what we eat, what we eat should be 
pretty good.]]></description><media:content height="800" isDefault="true" medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca/1609171028490-JTKKXPI10K5DBKM3VEBJ/john-suscovich-foodcyclist-jackalope-square-thumb.jpg?format=1500w" width="800"><media:title type="plain">John's Backstory - Part One: Inception</media:title></media:content><dc:creator>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com (John Suscovich)</dc:creator></item><item><title>John's Backstory - Part Two: Starting My Farm</title><pubDate>Thu, 03 Dec 2020 15:57:00 +0000</pubDate><link>https://www.farmmarketingsolutions.com/blog/johns-backstory-part-two-starting-my-farm</link><guid isPermaLink="false">559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca:559d44a6e4b08f1741eff3a3:5fe39aba931ce35d81938703</guid><description><![CDATA[My start in farming wasn’t easy.

Whether you are farming or thinking 
about starting a farm, why are you doing this? The key to keeping a 
business going, and creating a lasting lifestyle is to find what drives 
you, and let it keep driving you forward.

I would love to publish the podcast episode or YouTube video where I have 
the magic bullet to making farms financially viable and “successful” but I 
do not think a magic bullet exists. It takes a stupid amount of hard work 
and determination.

When the going gets tough you are going to have to define and hang onto 
your single motivating purpose. Your kids, the earth, millions of dollars, 
fame, posterity, free beer, whatever… Find it, take a picture, keep it in 
your wallet, and look at it every day.]]></description><media:content height="1458" isDefault="true" medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca/1583802535551-LFTPEX15MJBSLA9REFKF/farm_motivation.jpg?format=1500w" width="1458"><media:title type="plain">GFP101: Farming Motivation</media:title></media:content><dc:creator>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com (John Suscovich)</dc:creator></item><item><title>GFP100: Getting Rid Of Farm Experts</title><category>Growing Farms Podcast</category><pubDate>Tue, 10 Mar 2020 00:59:44 +0000</pubDate><link>https://www.farmmarketingsolutions.com/blog/getting-rid-of-farm-experts</link><guid isPermaLink="false">559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca:559d44a6e4b08f1741eff3a3:5e66e581a4656772cbc9bab4</guid><description><![CDATA[They told us it can’t be done.

Within 
QuickBooks the different items that we track are broken down and organized 
into categories like income, expenses, and payroll. 

When you are starting to farm your financial accounting may be simple 
enough that all you need is a spreadsheet or even a notebook. QuickBooks is 
just a fancy notebook that helps you keep track of what you are doing with 
your farm business finances.

When I started using it I had to learn too things:

a supportive role of the other two businesses while also producing farm

In 2018 we are focusing on the definition of a farm brewery and putting the 
most effort into agricultural enterprises that add value into the brewery 
while minimizing the farm's overhead.]]></description><media:content height="1125" isDefault="true" medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca/1510227197837-RMKWULNMYKG6H7TBIT2J/fall_drone-0833.jpg?format=1500w" width="1500"><media:title type="plain">My 2018 Farm Plan</media:title></media:content><dc:creator>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com (John Suscovich)</dc:creator></item><item><title>Farm Sales Demographic Shift</title><pubDate>Fri, 03 Nov 2017 10:54:33 +0000</pubDate><link>https://www.farmmarketingsolutions.com/blog/farm-sales-demographic-shift</link><guid isPermaLink="false">559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca:559d44a6e4b08f1741eff3a3:59fc441c53450ae23d8c2d8a</guid><description><![CDATA[2017 brought with it one of the most fun opportunities I have ever had the 
pleasure to be a part of. After a couple years of selling chickens off the 
farm and running the brewery mostly off wholesale we were finally able to 
open our own tasting room.

This was fun for me for a few reasons. There’s the business reasons like 
being able to finally pour beer and sell at retail prices (until now it was 
primarily wholesale). But that’s the boring stuff.

If you remember back a few blog posts, I went to school for scenic and 
lighting design. Here at my home, the place I’ve been toiling over for the 
past few years, I got to scratch an itch and help design and build a 
tasting room and farm store.]]></description><media:content height="1000" isDefault="true" medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca/1509706459797-WS7PP3NDHDOM2Y01LRNC/farm_brewery-2.jpg?format=1500w" width="1500"><media:title type="plain">Farm Sales Demographic Shift</media:title></media:content><dc:creator>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com (John Suscovich)</dc:creator></item><item><title>Building Onto a Farm Brewery</title><pubDate>Wed, 01 Nov 2017 01:38:06 +0000</pubDate><link>https://www.farmmarketingsolutions.com/blog/2016-building-onto-a-farm-brewery</link><guid isPermaLink="false">559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca:559d44a6e4b08f1741eff3a3:59f91348085229220f413b77</guid><description><![CDATA[As I've now looked back at every year leading up to this one something 
became very clear to me. Not for one season have I ever tried to be only a 
farm. What I mean by that is I never told everyone else "sorry, I can't do 
that, I have to focus on the farm."

Granted, that wasn't necessarily the original vision. The farm was always 
part of a bigger strategy involving two other businesses. However, looping 
in land and project management along with other odd jobs was just too much. 
Where we fell short was thinking I could create a viable farm while 
balancing all these other obligations. Lesson learned.]]></description><media:content height="1125" isDefault="true" medium="image" type="image/jpeg" url="https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca/1509497206691-9H1E5PWUIHM9COO5J5MG/new_barn-0277.jpg?format=1500w" width="1500"><media:title type="plain">Building Onto a Farm Brewery</media:title></media:content><dc:creator>hello@farmmarketingsolutions.com (John Suscovich)</dc:creator></item><item><title>Sorting Through The Mess On Farm</title><pubDate>Tue, 24 Oct 2017 10:35:34 +0000</pubDate><link>https://www.farmmarketingsolutions.com/blog/2015-sorting-through-the-mess-on-farm</link><guid isPermaLink="false">559d432ce4b0d7e075ef85ca:559d44a6e4b08f1741eff3a3:59ef0fe94c0dbfd607133d2c</guid><description><![CDATA[2015 was my second year on farm.

for the year. That number does not support a family of three by itself, 
especially when you consider that doesn’t account for my farm expenses, but 
it was the start I expected.

When I moved onto my new farm I took on partners. I was given the goal to 
gross $100k while also growing two different perennial operations that 
weren’t going to make any money for a few years. I figured that if I 
grossed $20k with 1300 broilers and some herbs that if I just took that and 
multiplied it by five I could hit my goal.

New York City to Seattle to San Diego we visited farms and craft breweries

the road that usually start with “oh man, remember that time we…”. Perhaps 
those stories will surface in future blog post, but for now I must stay on 
task.

Today’s post highlights some of our farm experiences from our trip. If 
pedal power was how we got there, let’s talk really quickly about why we
