The EBT situation is really the big push for us doing this. We went through a period of homelessness for a full 7 months 5 years ago. (FEMA flood back in Howell County took out our rental house) and I came up to Springfield looking for work living in the van we had at the time. Fast forward 5 years and we now own a home, 2 vehicles all paid off and are just getting the credit cards done with. So our main drive for the farm is to provide a better staple of local food that's more affordable, especially for those on EBT/SNAP because we have totally been there! (Plus be better in quality than that of Aldi's for example.)
