I applaud your effort, but I think you've made an incorrect assumption about scaling up your farming. >Someone with mechanized equipment and a few acres could produce much more organic produce than I do in the same amount of time, a

My parents are vegetarian, and I've had a similar experience, except for one product: Beyond Meat. Their chicken is unbelievably realistic; I could tell it apart in a direct taste test, but in the context of something like a burrito, I
