10 Signs You May Be a Farm Nerd

Do you dream of nano-solar paint in barn red? When you have a pest problem do you wonder if it would be green to introduce a lizard to your garden? You just may be a farm nerd.

All Your Beets R Belong To Us!

1. You dream of learning Ruby on Rails and building a chicken coop. You can't decide which to get started with first.

2. You have been outside working on biochar, but want to check your rendering - You get soot all over your keyboard.

3. You are hacking the timers on your soaker hose system.

4. You are making a quilt based on images of neurons. (Don't that's my project!)

5. You wonder if nano-particle solar paint will be available in barn red.

6. All your garden plant markers have latin names.

7. You visit instructables.com every day.

8. You note that being a farmer is a little like being a programmer. You can wear the same type of thing everyday and no one will comment. This pleases you.

9. You are really really scared of bees, but you are considering making a honey bee hive. You think beekeeper outfits are full of awesome.

10. Like most farmers you have a pest problem in the garden. Unlike most farmers your first thought on solving the problem is the possible introduction of farm lizards.

If you answered yes:

0-2 times You are a farm nerd like Carrot Top is a comic.
3-5 times You may indeed be a bit of a farm nerd.
6-8 times You are definitely, or more accurately speaking "approximately" (of course) a farm nerd, with a margin of error of +/- .04.
9-10 times You rock the farm like Kirk rocks the Universe!
