      <![CDATA[I love the Independent and have read it for years, but I found this particular piece very irritating and very arrogant. Let me clarify first that I am not a "gentleman farmer" nor even a gardener, and I buy my vegetables as often at the grocery store as the farmer's market.<br>
<br>
I agree with the comments of Mojo above that small farmers are much more threatened by the large corporate farms and the climate change than by old Mr. McDooly who sells his "maters" from a table by his mailbox.<br>
<br>
However, I was more concerned about Mr. Larson's tone and the assumptions he made about "gentleman farmers".<br>
<br>
First off, Mr. Larson contends that "gentleman farmers" farm for "pleasure" rather than "the need for money"?

      <![CDATA[Dilettantes are a part of every industry and always will be. Hopefully a few of them gain enough insight from their experiences to buy into the local agriculture and make it better for all concerned.
