The whole steer, sold by the cut
When a harvest comes back from the processor, every cut goes into the shop with its own count. Customers order brisket and soup bones the same way, the counts drop as they buy, and you can see what's left in the freezer at a glance.

More from every animal
Thirty acres won't hold many more cows, so the growth comes from each one. Your tallow and bone broth already turn fat and bones into $17 and $10 jars, and next year they get room to grow, alongside eggs from the hens. It's all one shop, so a jar of tallow goes in the cart next to the brisket.

Workshops, with a system behind them
The pumpkin patch is resting, and workshops are where you're headed. Farmhand Events sells the tickets, caps each class, checks people in at the gate and adds every guest to your list, so a cider pressing in October turns into beef orders in November.
Here we're being paid to collect an email and contact list. That's pretty sweet.
Curtis Millsap of Millsap Farms, whose Pizza Night runs on Farmhand Events: about 250 guests a night and a 6,000-person list, built without ad spend.
