Nevada Still


Been busy, mostly doing nothing I suppose. We did some more exploring in this area and tried to find the infamous herb farm. Brother Pat asked about the popular spot in the Pahrump Valley. Best kept secret in town. We looked and looked, researched the web, and here is what we found. There is an herb farm here, it has been closed for over a year and some. We drove to the place and located the green houses. The place still has equipment and all the necessities for operation but it has a problem with money. The operation uses propane to heat the hoses and the water for the Hydro-ponic aspect of it. We spoke with the owner as a dog sat by his side and growled at us continually. The owner seemed like a very nice gentleman and he was hopeful that with some solar energy and some expected financing he will be able to be back operating soon. We gave our best wishes to the him and drove through the rest of the property. The green houses were very large and the heaters and storage tanks were abundant. Very interesting venture for sure, and oh yeah it is located near the Chicken ranch. We then stopped at a local casino for lunch and to make another donation. Peace and Love,
Cris & Bob
