Early harvest photos

pretty to look at, but it seems like hard work. Thanks for posting Dale

 

Where is Clarice? That is the important thing....

 

Congrats on the first bog, Dale. Why do you think your produce so much more than the average?

 

Does the chef wear one of those VERY cool chef hats?

 

um, sorry if this has been asked before but does the 'beater' smack the little suckers off the plants so they float for harvest?

 

This looks like a lot more fun and a lot more honest work than being stuck in a lab all day long. How do I join your cult?

 

Is that the place next door to you?

 

That's a wee bit out of my price range. This cult is expensive.

 

This looks great. Lovely colours too.

"We'll load my 2.54 acre bog on Monday."
So is loading a bog when you flood it for harvest?

 

That's wonderful, Dale! Congratulations on a fantastic harvest from that bog. We kid you a lot about being a lazy sack most of the year but I know you don't pull a harvest like that outta yer ass.

 

Banks still loan with 0 down, right? oke:

By my calculations, a 30 year fixed on that would be vicinity ~ 10,000 a month, or ~ 120,000 a year.

Based on current prices for barrel of cranberries, thats about 2000 barrels = 5 acres of your best yield/year. Which I'm guessing would be 10 acres of average yield. This is still not counting income tax or property tax, which I'm assuming would be pretty hefty on a property that size.

So I guess if you know what you're doing (which I don't), that property would be cash flow positive.

 

Well good for you!!!

Is that partly cause Jon is helping? oke:

*Hey MJ, you think we can ask him if this means he is taking everybody out for dinner?*

 

Dale, I hate being such a know-nothing, but what does bbl/acre abbreviation mean exactly? Ermon and I tried to figure out bbl and didn't think bushel or barrel fit quite
right.
