There are some traps to avoid but overall i'm convinced this is a
great way to finance a small holding.  Not sure if it would be
characterized as a business, investment, or part time job.  It seems
to have elements of each.  Some people even use it as a tax shelter.

Yesterday a book list was posted to alt.simpleliving which may be
of interest.  I've only read the one by Charles Long and can 
recommend it.
