My Farm in Sosua Dominican Republic

Did you say tomato? I have 4 different varieties. All that rain we had did wonders for the Tomatoes. Seems as if they just sucked up the water and blew up. I will have more tomatoes than I can eat also. Perhaps I will have a small farm stand on the property I own on the Highway. Sell fruits, vegatables and plants. I have quite a stock building up now!!
I have Tomatoes for Salads and tomatoes to make sauce out of. Whooo Hooo! Man I love this stuff! I have many vines of Passion Fruit growing now also. Chinola is the name of the fruit. I also have a large fruit tree in fruit called Carmito. Don't know what it tastes like yet. Had one tree at the other property but never got fruit. Give me a few weeks and I will soon know. Growing stuff is so easy on the new property. Prices of food went up around Christmas time and never retreated. They said it was the storm that did it but it is just high prices I think. Good for me now that I have so much growing!! Now for the first time I can see making a living as a farmer. Before I couldn't but this property is so bountiful that I believe it would pay. What more can you ask for in life? Doing something you both enjoy and can be profitable. I even believe I can make money raising Goats and Sheep. My girlfriend is reading over my shoulder and answered the first question "SEXO". Funny but true.

My Farm in Sosua Dominican Repbulic

OK folks the Farm is progressing. Not only beautiful flowers but great fruits and Veggies! Just look below at the rows of Yuca and inbetween look at my Plantano and Bananas. This dirt is fabulous! Way better than my other finca.s I have so much growing now it is unbelievable. My first harvest of Yuca is going to be HUGE and I will probably sell a lot because it would be impossible to eat it all. Yuca you eat the root and the tops get planted back in the ground for more Yuca. The leaves are eaten by the goats and sheep and rich in vitamins and minerals. That is why the one goat I ate was so delicious.
