Owning a farm today does not solely consist of raising animals or growing vegetation. There is a slew of opportunities for farmers and landowners in the marketplace. Even farmers can have a little side-hustle to increase profits from your homestead. And the opportunities are sometimes right under your nose where you least expect them. Boost your revenue this year and get started by looking at your land from a different point of view.
Open A Guest House
You have something that a lot of people seek, if only for a short weekend away, which is the idyllic scenery of a farm. Make use of your extra space by opening a small bed and breakfast, rent it out on Airbnb, or open a farm-to-table restaurant. The latter will, undoubtedly, involve a lot more work than you might be up for – but it illustrates how much potential your farm actually has to boost your income significantly. Maybe you’re able to think about someone you know who would be perfect for the role as a manager of your guest house, Airbnb or farm-to-table restaurant? That way, you’re providing job opportunities while also building the kind of business that makes something of its opportunities.
Sell Excess Firewood
Some farms have a lot more of it than others and you should absolutely make money off that wood. You don’t just have to sell it as is, though, as wood has many uses. You can have a look at cfnielsen.com if you’d like to know more about turning wood into briquettes so that you’ll be able to make a bit more money right away. Also, try to approach people at a farmers’ market if you’re not sure where to start. They might be able to spread the word for you.
Make And Sell Soap
Another idea for your next trip to the farmers’ market is to start producing soap and open your own little stall. Homemade soaps are rising in popularity and are quite easy to make. People love organic soaps as they are known for making skin silky-smooth. Read more about soap-making on organic-beauty-recipes.com and you should be able to grasp the basics.
