Harvard Farmers Market

Liz over at Hyperlocalvore recently posted an interesting calculation about yard sharing and going hyperlocal – as in growing your own — that presents some interesting calculations.   She figures that if you yard share (with 2 other people) 2 apple trees, 15 blueberry bushes and 4 almond trees, that over 20 years you can actually make a profit of  over $61,000 (by pure re-invested savings)… and by that calculation, if you don’t yard share, and instead bring your extra goods to the market to sell you can make over $320,000  — all for a very modest investment of $1700 — check out her #’s and let us know what you think.

Oh, and we are sending out applications for our 2010 season now, so email us if you have some extra fruit trees that you are ready to make some $$ from.
