Income From The Land


gardenweb.com) for other plants that I really want. I also sell the plants at local flea markets for cash! I have received 100s of seeds through the mail from different plant exchange websites!

I've planted them & next year I plan to have a huge inventory of different plants! This way, I can turn a little bit of sweat into cash! I like bulbs or tubular plants that don't need a lot of babying, and that are quick multipliers! I have 1/2 an acre that I can either mow or plant "money" on. Oh yea, a comment on the pecans... I picked up and sold over $600 worth of pecans this season from 4 trees! It only took me a couple of days of off & on work!
