Okra Farm

I was told a story about a man who planted 1 acre of okra every year. Over the years people were waiting for his okra harvest, to buy his okra. He build up a client base over time and stuck to a crop he liked to grow

It may be monoculture, but you do like okra.

And, it is easy to grow, since it was about the only thing we were able to reliably harvest in this Oklahoma drought.
