I would suggest adding some row hippers to your arsenal for vegetables. You mentioned heavy rain last year and having crops up high can be a make or break. A tip of the hat for going in the chemical free direction. It can be more work at times but it's worth it for the quality of produce. There are many seed catalogs that carry organic and non gmo seed in quantity for smaller market farms. Just search organic seed and you'll get everything you need. Eliot Coleman's book "the new organic grower" is good to help get started. It deals in depth with small acreage organic farms. There are also some good videos on you tube dealing with organic/small scale cultivation. I think searching vegetable cultivation should bring them up. Sounds like you have realistic goals and enough equipment to get it started. Good luck putting it all together.
