[QUOTE="kel, post: 1347777, member: 17197"] A lot of farms will deliver, too - either to your door if you buy enough/pay a fee, or they'll have drop-off points where you can go once a week to pick up your order. I order from several, I get basically all my meat, eggs, and onions from them. Just search "farm delivery <your city>". Good luck, let us know how it goes. If I were a free man that would be my number one priority. Instead I'm making money so I can give financial runway to the farmstead community I'll be building and will have to build my parachute as a fall. So it goes. Look into WWOOFing - a lot of it can be kind of a scam, and it has attracted unfortunate types before (hippie backpackers who flake or OD one night and the farmer has to drive them to town - probably why a lot of those farms that remain in the program are iffy/scammy, because the good ones don't want to deal with that) but it's a place you can start looking at least. But, also, search as suggest above, and ask them if they need help with their deliveries for starters, build some good favor and I bet you could swing a kind of apprenticeship out of it. [/QUOTE]
