This is amazing. It is exactly what we need in Baltimore although I think I would decrease the minimum size to a quarter acre…. We had planted 60,000 plugs for transplanting to our 6 to be constructed 3000 sf greenhouses on a non profit institution’s surplus land and we have been stopped in our tracks cause the State Dept of Taxation says that the non profit owner’s land will become taxable because we are a for profit leasing from a non profit….. We need a policy change along the lines of what is being proposed in Salt Lake.
