In 2017, my wife, Rachel, and I moved our rural vegetable farm into the city, primarily to be closer to schools, extended family, and activities for our two young kids. The move also allowed the farm, then 11 years old, a fresh start.
We micro-sized, from 1 acre to 1/3 of an acre in production. Instead of seven buildings, we built one — a barn-house. Instead of four greenhouses, we put up two. We now sell almost all of our food within 1½ miles of the farm.
