When cutting hard squash, melons and other large pieces of foods, you are required to place one hand on the handle and the other hand on other end which is the blade and then push down hard to cut throught the item. This usually hurts the hand on the blade and it could be dangerous. Suggest makeing a large cutting knife with a good handle on each end.

Comment on To Urban Farm or Not to Urban Farm… by Roxanne Christensen

Roxanne Christensen — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 15:31:41 +0000

There is now a growing corps of first generation farmers across Canada and the U.S who are literally taking urban farming into their own hands by setting up commercial farm busineses in their backyards, front lawns and neighborhood plots. What is enabling them is SPIN-Farming which non-technical, easy-to-learn, inexpensive-to-implement farming system that makes it possible to earn significant income from land under an acre in size. Minimal infrastructure, reliance on hand labor to accomplish most farming tasks, utilization of existing water sources to meet irrigation needs, and situating close to markets all keep investment and overhead costs low. SPIN therefore removes the 2 big barriers to entry for new farmers – they don’t need a lot of land or money, and it makes farming compatible with densely populated areas.
You can see some of these backyard and front lawn farmers in action in the gallery area of the SPIN-Farming web site (www.spinfarming.com).
