Where exactly is this farm? Somewhere at about 500 foot elevation? Kalopa maikai? Kukuihaele? Kapulena? There aren't that many houses at that elevation around here.
You and i are thinking on the same line plus you give the extra meat to the homeless shelter or church's that feed the homeless

They can't accept non-USDA processed meat. Even if you give it to them, they can't accept it. I'm not even sure if they can accept home grown vegetables. The whole "food safety" issue might keep people from getting sick (which is it's purported purpose) however, it also pretty much means everyone is absolutely dependent on food processors. I suspect the big food processors (there actually aren't that many of them) have been sending folks to congress to get bills passed favoring them.

Maybe we can get Roseanne campaigning for less stringent food safety laws so folks will be able to grow their own and sell the extra for a meager profit.
