A bit of an ominous projection, but lets say a meat plant which employs 80% of a town of mostly renters/homeowners shuts down for six months.

At some point you need to figure if it's worth to have individual septics or waste water plant.. 

Call those people up and offer to do their homes in exchange for planting a sign in their yard, similar to the roofing or painting signs you see after someone gets a new roof or paint job.

A big part of this is picking and choosing various unique colors/patterns/textures/and designs from different eras, and blending them together. 

The intent of sharing that information is to help us all remain aware of potential implications as we continue monitoring trends (such as the release that was published today stating that Tyson Foods is suspending operations at multiple plants).

Between hay, timber, maybe plant an orchard, berry patch, pumpkin patch, Christmas trees, grow other ornamental or fruit trees for sale, maybe cabins or a couple RV sites or even some rustic campsites, a fishing lake, there are so many avenues to make $150 here or $500 there i think you could make it pay for itself over time

LOTS of landscaping, most of the value add was removing trash, ugly plants, trees and other horrible previous owner ideas.

This was back in 2016 when I was still working as a biologist and managing this huge time-sensitive project mapping endangered plant species on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendelton near San Diego.

You are going to be putting in a lot of hours at first with very little pay compared to the time you are putting in, but you are planting seeds that will come to fruition down the road.
