      That’s entirely a choice. I am connected to a local vegetable farm run by two farmers who grow their produce organically. They run a little circular business as they’re also connected to an educational/kid-friendly animal farm, they sponsor a public fruit path through their own work, and then they partner with local shops as well.

      Me and my son go there almost every week to pick fresh veggies, and we just pay directly to the farmers. But yeah, the payment is digital…

        The crops or the massive farms around me have so much cool tech out in the field. Love watching the helicopters cropdust the fields in the early morning on the coast. Beautiful stuff.
