Hello!
I’m Rob Torcellini and welcome to Bigelow Brook Farm!
We’re about to start on a huge new project and need your help to meet our goal.
I have purchased two used 26’ wide greenhouses
totally nearly 200’ in length.
My goal is to construct one aquaponic greenhouse and have it functioning for the fall of 2016.
Over the years, I have created hundreds of free videos on YouTube and I will continue
to produce these videos to help educate and maybe even provide a little entertainment.
However, these videos are very time consuming
to produce.
Depending on the complexity of the editing and number of diagrams for each video, it
can take between 1 to 2 hours of post-production work per minute of completed footage.
Typically it’s 5-8 hours of editing.
Even though our YouTube subscriptions and views continue to rise, the ad revenue continues
to dwindle.
We’ve joined the crowd funding site Patreon
to help raise funding to continue producing videos and provide the needed revenue for
the new aquaponic greenhouse.
For a very small pledge you can gain early viewing of our videos, access to our premium
web site containing spreadsheets, diagrams, and frequently asked questions, or have a
permanent advertisement embedded directly into a video which can’t be blocked, reaching
10’s of thousands of targeted viewers.
The Patreon concept is very simple, you just pledge a small payment for each video that
we release.
If it’s a slow month, no payment is made.
If we produce a bunch of videos, you have the ability of capping your total contributions
per month.
As always, our videos are still free to watch,
but with your support, you will gain access to additional insider knowledge about our
operation.
Not only will I produce videos about the new greenhouse, but I will continue to produce
videos about the geodesic greenhouse and other farm activities.
Thanks for your time and generosity over the
years and I look forward to sharing our new greenhouse experiences with you.
