First, you start with a plot of land that hasn't grown anything but weeds and small trees for 90 years.
It's important that you plant during full bug season....wearing the latest in gardening couture.
Have it snow as soon as everything is in the ground.
Now don't skip this step....don't, whatever you do, finish putting up the fence. You need the local bears, deer and moose to tromp all over your freshly planted garden. Very important!
Check on your garden at least 3 times over the growing season.

Complain about the bloody weeds and small trees invading the garden.
Swear you'll NEVER attempt to garden again.
Don't fertilize.
Water it twice. This is crucial.
Wait 3 1/2 months.
And voila....dig up 35 pounds of the little beggars....all the while dreaming about next year's crop.
Proclaim to your husband, that you are the greatest farmer ever!!!
Add some olive oil, kosher salt and garlic - bake at 400 for 30 minutes.
Serve with a side of peameal bacon. Yes, the taters are the main component to the meal when they smell and taste this good!!!!!!!!
If you follow my method...you too can be a farmer! hahahaha

Now that's my kind of farming. I'll have to give it a try next spring. I did'nt realize it was so easy. lol.
