Meeting Tennessee Luke today was a real treat. He shared with me the beauty of the Cooperative Extension. Luke is a retired police officer with land that he has classified (via the Cooperative Extension) as agricultural land. By classifying his operation as a farm, he has worked out a tax savings strategy, and gets to have a small herd of cattle. "This is not a money maker, it's a money loser." I mentioned this to Alabama's own Master Sargeant McMunn, and he seemed on board with the concept: "Yeah, I've been thinking about doing that." Tennessee Luke mentioned that there is a market for goats given the influx of Middle Easterners in his parts.
