I have been selling tomato,pepper,eggplant, etc. plants at farmers market for the last 6-7 years. I sell many of the same plants you can buy at nursery or big box stores, along with heirlooms. Determinate as well as indeterminate and show them what what my plants that I raised last year looked like. I sell my plants in 12 oz. paper cups, and get $1.50 per plant. I know we sold close to 1000 plants all together.
