How to Start a Farm From Scratch — Even If You Have No Experience

Starting a farm is a dream for many people — but turning that dream into a profitable, purpose-driven business? That’s the hard part.

Most aspiring farmers struggle with the same things:

  • “Where do I even start?”

  • “How do I get funding?”

  • “What if I don’t have land yet?”

  • “Can I really do this without a farming background?”

If that sounds like you, you’re not alone — and you’re not stuck. I created a solution that combines everything I wish I had when I was starting out: a real plan, real tools, and real support.

How to Start a Farm From Scratch

💡 Why I Created How to Start a Farm From Scratch

My name is Malik Miller. I’m a farmer, agricultural consultant, and the founder of Norma’s Basket. I’ve worked with first-generation farmers, small landowners, and passionate growers across the country — and I’ve seen the same gap over and over:

People have heart and vision... but no clear roadmap.

So I built one.

How to Start a Farm From Scratch is an all-in-one startup toolkit designed for new farmers — especially those without formal training, generational land, or deep financial backing.


🌱 What’s Inside the Program?

This program gives you the tools, knowledge, and guidance you need to move from “I want to farm” to “Here’s my plan, my budget, and my funding strategy.”

Here’s what’s included:

  • 📘 Step-by-Step eBook — A beginner’s guide that walks you through every stage of planning and launching your farm.

  • 🎥 Video Modules — Six lessons covering land evaluation, legal setup, budgeting, USDA funding, business structure, and your first 90 days.

  • 🛠️ Printable Toolkits — Budget templates, weekly planners, startup checklists, harvest logs, and vision maps.

  • 💸 Funding Breakdown — Learn how to apply for USDA microloans, grants, and low-barrier capital for new farmers.

  • 🤖 AI Agri-Advisor — A custom-built chatbot (yes, really) designed to give you honest, practical business advice tailored to your farm plan.

This isn’t fluff. It’s a system. It’s built from real experience, and it’s designed to save you time, money, and frustration.


👩‍🌾 Who This Is For

This program is for:

  • First-generation farmers and urban growers

  • Landowners with an idea but no plan

  • Aspiring agri-entrepreneurs who want to get funded

  • Anyone building a small farm from the ground up

You don’t need a degree. You don’t need 100 acres. You just need focus, commitment, and the right tools.
