Cole, what a paradox. Living in tomato heaven! But can't get a good price there.
I went and read the wiki about Illinois. Interesting, and a big step up from Illinois = Chicago, the lake, draw a blank. I am completely ignorant when it comes to geography so thanks for the push. If I keep talking to interesting farmers and gardeners I'll eventually have some concept of all the places in the world.
The bin I made is 31"x42" (widest pallet measurement). As you can see, I set it up on a 6' tablet. If you had an 8' table, you could set two of these up side by side. I usually plant 12 plants on average of each tomato type so I don't have more than 5# of salads & cherries & sometimes slicers. This display method allows me to put about five pounds in each bin and fill as they buy. With a 8' table, you could fit two of these bins.
