Gardeners/farmers: last week I asked Rick Bin about a separate Garden/Farm forum, bump this thread and send him a message if you want to see it happen: "Float the idea and see what reaction you get. I don't want dead forums, but if it looks like it will get some traction, then why not.
Trial balloon time, I'd say."Look how many reloading forums there are (five!!)...... self-sufficiency, to any degree, is an equally worthy goal. It's hard to keep warm and shoot straight if your stomach is empty and your pantry is so bare that the mice pack up and leave. I'd like to see more than an occasional garden thread, there's a lot of information that can be shared, same as all of the experience with various firearms/cartridges/hunting techniques that's available here.

I wonder if it will take seed, if it will flourish and take root and grow and flower.

I'd also be interested in a farm, garden and tractor forum.
Beware of thieves, scammers and dishonest members on the "Fire" classifieds. Ya there is a thief here too. Whatever!!
They're all around the CampFire and everywhere.

To be successful, it would have to encompass more than farming/gardening.
Maybe something life self-sufficiency, or how-to do things yourself instead of having someone do it for you.

Sounds good to me. I am always amazed at the residual knowledge on this site, on just about any topic!(of course, you need your filters on for controversial topics!)

I'd be in. I live on my grandparents original farm of 70 acres in the house that grandpa built back in 1944.

right on!
We are still eating good out of our 2015 garden in the form of potatoes and canned tomatoes and sauce, pickled beets and cukes, canned carrots, canned beans, dilly beans, sweet/hot beans, and green tomato relish.
The 2016 garden is all mapped out.
