Any farmers or growers here? [View all]

Reason I ask is that I have just retired after over 30 years as an aircraft mechanic.

I've relocated to Florida to help my mother out with her tropical fruit grove after father's passing and am rapidly learning that this business is actually very complex.

We have a gardening forum and an outdoor forum.

Just curious as to whether any ag sector members are out there.
