John Bender: The Man Behind the Gas Station Ranch

Farming in a big city may sound like a crazy idea, but John Bender didn't see it that way. As he strolled past a humble piece of land at the crossroads of two major highways, he was struck by the idea of creating a little slice of the past in the midst of towering skyscrapers. After purchasing the land, John established a ranch right in the heart of the urban jungle. Realizing that turning a profit from farming would take time, he cleverly set up a gas station on a prime spot of the property to generate the main revenue stream.
