Today I am joined by Bruce Ford.  In addition to running a small farm he consults with new land owners on how to get ag exemptions with bees and wildlife management programs.  This can be done in many states with as little as 5 acres.  Saving land owners thousands of dollars every single year.

I had at least half a dozen great conversations with Bruce this year at The Greater Reset in Bastrop, so I asked him to come on TSPC, join in today this will be awesome.  We will talk about reduction of your tax footprint, building a business, bee keeping, green house growing and a ton more.

Bruce lives with his family on a 16 acre organic farm near Ellinger, Texas where he practices with different compost designs, microbial brewing with compost and soil microbe philosophy, beekeeping, rainwater catchment, radio communication, growing native plants, herbs and medicinal plants by propagation from seeds and cuttings. He is a licensed Texas nursery grower with a homemade greenhouse. Bruce is active in several local beekeepers associations. He establishes and maintains honey bee yards and mentors individuals in the fine art of beekeeping in central Texas.

Bruce is a regular vendor at the LaGrange Farmers Market held every Saturday morning at the Jersey Barnyard Farm, 3117-Hwy 159.  Bruce is a leader in the grassroots homestead movement in central Texas and mentors families on food security. His philosophy is collaborating and lifting up all stakeholders in the room.
Thousands of like-mined people are moving to central Texas and building new communities. I embrace this movement by sharing skillsets, hosting workshops and promoting the farming community movement here in central Texas.

As a native Texan, Bruce is passionate about bird, butterfly and wildlife habitat development. He consults and mentors Texans on agricultural exemption implementation with honey bees and wildlife habitat management planning. His skillsets include permaculture homestead design planning, “Back to Eden” garden philosophy, greenhouse construction, organic gardening and radio communication. Bruce is an active leader in the central Texas food security movement.
