How to make a profit in small organic farm

Being a physician can be stressful. I find relief and respite in the farm, living with the nature, appreciating the rural unadulterated beauty.

Useful and motivational websites:

• http://mofga.org/Publications/MaineOrganicFarmerGardener/Spring2011/SmallFarm/tabid/1866/Default.aspx
• http://rodaleinstitute.org/our-work/organic-no-till/

Ideas:

• Homestead for-profit business vs. self-sufficiency non-profit
• No-till cover crops
• Making $40,000 profit per acre per planting vs. per year;

Plan:

• Be frugal and a minimalist in the beginning--don't go into debt as much as possible
• $10,000 budget?
• Start small
• If every adult spends $15/day on healthy meals = $5,475/yr; To feed 10 ppl = $54,750/yr; 100 ppl = $547,500; 200ppl or 100 families = $1,095,000
• Poultry in 1 acre land? for eggs and meat? organic feed? cost effective/ profitability? 6 months to lay eggs, 6 weeks to meat; CAS--Controlled atmosphere stunning-- for no pain slaughtering (http://www.hsa.org.uk/downloads/technical-notes/TN12-gas-killing-of-chickens-and-turkeys.pdf);
• Goats to graze the land and control weeds? 1 acre housing? profitability? CAS slaughtering?
• Bamboo for lumber? 1 acre
• Fruit trees (avocado, apples, oranges, figs, peaches, nectarines, blueberry, raspberry), melons, strawberries 
• Compose and recycle and reuse
• Flowers? profitability?
• Employment? Individuals interested in grass root movement, environmental/ecological impact; 2 acres per employee--$40,000 to the company; >=$40,000 to the employee
• Reduce fuel use, waste, or environmental impact
• Produce fuel?
• Straw and goats for weed suppression
• Beneficial insects, row covers/ tunnels/ green houses, companion planting for pest control
• Grow complete food groups (wheat/oats, leafy greens, carrots/yam, tomatoes, potatoes, chickpeas/soy beans/ eggs/ poultry/ goat meat, fruits)

What's for Dinner?

Cooking is a hassle. Eating home-made meal is healthier but being a physician working over 70 hours a week, I really don't have the time. It took me a whole day off (the only day I'm off in a week) to cook.
Here's the break down:

1. Recipe lookup (2 hours minimum)
2. Grocery shopping (2 hours minimum)--getting to the supermarket, finding veggies, meat, spices, seasoning, coming home with grocery
3. Washing and chopping (2hours)
4. Marinating (1/2 hour)
5. Cooking (2 hours)
6. Washing dishes (1 hour)
7. Cooling food and placing in fridge (1/2 hour)

Total: 10 hours!!!

This NYT article summarizes my ordeal:

So here's some solution to my dilemma:

 1) Blue Apron--all the ingredients and recipes (reduce my cooking time by 4 hours)
