Grower's Paradise

<p>Las Vegas native.&nbsp; Four years in USAF Active Duty, Honorable Discharge.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Throughout my life I have gone from job to job only to come home and take care of my plants, my hobby..... to grow things.&nbsp; Food was always the best thing to grow because we spend money on this stuff at the supermarket.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My father is a very 'naturalist' to say the least about food and body.&nbsp; His devotion to whatgrass over the last 30 years is why I decided I could make a little money if I could grow it better than anyone else.&nbsp; Turned out we were already doing it.&nbsp; So, over the last 8 years we have grown to capture the large majority of wheatgrass outlets here in Las Vegas but that is not a large enough market to really make a difference.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I know it's possible and profitable to grow fresh food indoors year round.&nbsp; Many have laughed at me throughout this and we are still here.&nbsp; Some think I'm crazy for wanting to grow cucumbers and tomatoes, but I think they are crazy for eating out of country produce.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>My goal is for farmers in every city to realize that indoor production is not only profitable but ethical on so many levels.&nbsp; I believe within time other cities will follow this trend that logical data and buying demands are proving.&nbsp; The train is on the track I just want to help push it along.</p>
