So, I want to turn my homestead into a business and want to do it right with some type of protection. I have never done anything like this before, so I thought I would ask here and see if people who have gone down this road can provide some insight, tips, and gotchas to avoid. So my question here is what type of legal entity is right for a homestead business?

A little background may be needed to help you answer my question, so here goes. I moved to my homestead two years ago and have been working fixing the place up and starting a few projects. I have been successful with chickens and have given out several thousand eggs this year to my neighbors, friend, and churches. I plan on building some greenhouses and growing organically grown vegetables, maybe even some aquaponics. My wife is also an artist and makes crafts, so that is some more things we might be selling. I have done a lot of wildlife habitat improvement and have will continue to do so to encourage as much biodiversity on the land as possible, with a focus on birds. My plan long term is to be a small eco-tourist destination with a few small cabins where birders (and others) can come and see birds or learning about organic farming and homesteading.

TiA for any advice.

Picture for attention. LOL!
