Produce Prices
How do you guys compete and price against the vendor or vendors who obviously did not grow their produce? They seem to be so much cheaper than what I think is a fair price for our produce.
Is the consumer knowledgeable enough to know the difference in produce that was raised in a medium sized garden vs produce that was raised commercially?
We have a great mix of tomatoes, potatoes, squash and peppers. My wife also makes granola and jam. Additionally, we live in a semi rural area, where farming is the major economic engine.
We sold $75.00 worth of potatoes and granola this past Saturday at the market. It was our first time we were proud.
Thanks for any advice,
John
