I am a vegetable grower looking for land to more farming. i have been practicing organic farming so i can still do it

Carrently doing part time farming  but planning to be full time once i get my own farm. Grow vegetable and practice organic farming. my reason for farming is to grow safe vegetable of my own and community without any chemicals .Iam planning to increase  my production and this can be achieved  by getting my own land and buy some machines. Currently  where i farm is a long drive which takes a lot of time to be at the farm. My future plans are to have my house at the farm and be organically certified to improve lives of many. i will make my own shade and buy my own cooler where to keep my produce. at the same time i will use my farm to teach many who to my farm to understand farming and health.
