Farm stand/market

Donation protected
In the begining of 2005 my husband and I moved to the Island of Puerto Rico to start a farm. My husband was working and we were doing things little by little to get the farm excavated and cultivated. We were also building our home at the same time while renting another house.  In the beginning of 2014 we were able to qualify for a microloan but the funds provided were not sufficient to do anything more then clear and plant two acres of land with plantains and peppers. The platians take 18 months to harvest and the peppers are still seedlings and take four months to harvest. So harvest time won't be for a while. I would like to help support my family by putting up a farm stand. I could help other local farmers sell their harvests while my farm is still developing. I have a full business plan and project building estimates. If your organization can help me build a small farm stand so I can sell our own organic produce as well as other locally grown produce and products, I feel that by establishing this farm stand I can help improve the availabilty of fresh organic produce and create jobs in my community.  I am more then willing to send you copies of both my businesss plan and building estimate. Thank you
