You deliver plant starts by bike in spring. Clients pay a posted rate, ticket, dues, or commission.
You get paid to deliver plant starts by bike in spring. Six lucrative weeks. Plan the rest of the year. A normal week is making or serving, photographing the work honestly, and a booking or preorder habit. Write the offer in one sentence a stranger would understand. Price for your hours.
Seed, soil, and a stall — on land you already can use. A tunnel or tractor is not the minimum (USDA beginning farmer). First harvest is seasonal.
Each required material has a matching shop listing — photo, price, and a way to add it to the cart.
Bike
City bicycle
A used city bike with lights, a lock, and a rear rack. For routes and errands — not an e-cargo van.
Crates
Stacking crates for hauling jars, mends, or produce. Crates, not a trailer.
A cellar or garage
Garage or cellar shop starter
The first shop layer for a garage or cellar: a bench top, a light, and a lockable bin. Starter, not a build-out.
Public examples matched to this path by what they actually publish — not endorsements, and not a claim they run this exact shop. Handles change. Verify before you write to anyone.

The bike-shop standard for filmed repairs: flats, brakes, and keeping a commuter running.
