He likes to grow things that he can either sell directly from harvest or add value to and then sell. And they all have a common thread....there is the slow pace of the growing season for each of them, and then suddenly, there is a lot of work to be done all at once. Take these projects for example:
Alex has some very good advice for incoming FFA students in this interview as to why they should really invest into multiple SAE's. Tune in and hear what he has to say!
