[QUOTE="larryshoat, post: 500988, member: 6773"] by Medic24 on Sat Feb 05, 2005 8:28 am Actually there are in fact some grants available through the Golden Leaf Foundation, that is money from the tobacco lawsuit/buyout. We have had several farmers in the area get small grants to either start or add to the herds they already had. As well as other projects. But like most goverment sponsored programs....they now "own" you. These farmers are constantly complaining about the paperwork, and inspections they have to go through. Not to mention, the 'little' civil service workers constantly bringing the 'bigger'civil service workers around to see what they have done with the money, and I can only assume to justify their own jobs. So you if you can stand the goverment knowing ALL about your business, and you have a desire to see them regularly.... go for it.... I am poor, but yet I am rich, fore I till the soil......naw....... who am I fooling? I am just plain dirt poor!
