Living in nature requires a self sustaining method of life. There is no supermarket or mall to go shopping. Most of true life's need can be produced all on your own - missing items are traded against values you create on your own. Life is simple if all actively contribute and participate in real work.
Producing for far away cities makes no sense. Delivery of food to far away cities is environment pollution and a waste of energy. But as an additional revenue source you may produce food products that can be air dried and hen shipped or stored for later consumption without cooling or preservation requiring chemical preservatives.
Ideal are herbs for cooking, nuts, hazelnuts, walnuts and other products that can be sold directly from the farm to visitors. Another added value product is honey and all related products of great value. Honey is easy to store, requires no cooling or complex storage system. Every farm producing flowers, fruits or berries or near a natural forest or wild fields may host bee combs to increase fruit and berry yield. The additional honey is a most valuable and easy to achieve revenue source.
Different members of your family may have different hobbies or skills that may be used to produce quality products as additional revenue in free time while enjoying to work. A list of such products includes:
There is enough farm land available that can be converted into more versatile farming production to make deforestation of jungle completely obsolete. Today's farmer may multiply their production in an organic way if farming methods similar to jungle are applied.
Look at all your land and the different type of soil you have. See if you have opportunities to produce exclusive luxury items for visitors such as flowers or pot plants, small quality fruit trees or young plants, seeds.
Add beauty and diversity to your farm. Add attraction that pleases the heart and soul for visitors or quests. Add a beautiful water lily or lotus flower pond with beautiful aquatic life, flowers and fishes. Certain water lilies can be used as delicious vegetable, lotus roots too have great nutritional value in addition to the large lotus seeds or the lotus tea made of fresh lotus petals. Nature itself when cared with love is a treasure for herbal medicine and delicious and healthy food products and adventures all at once. Open for God and accept God^s inspiration for new ideas beyond your traditional farming style.
The simple fact that a farmer lives in nature makes his farm a potential source of additional revenue opportunities without the need for any additional investment in money. All you need is a few decades of life experience, skills and expertise in one or several topics for real life and / or recreation.
