Once you build up that data base, you can decide what you will charge.

Bear in mind, however, that fresh produce is a dynamic industry, and as such is changing constantly, but don't worry; if you don't know what the ideal price is...neither does your opposition.


Thanks & Funny Advice.

I think I felt like a wholesaler for farmers who lost the crops last year. So I was thinking last week: If I feel like a wholesaler than I must act like one. So the smartest thing I did last year were to save my seeds first before I opened to avoid hurricane crop damage in August. Thank God We Had No Hurricanes!!!!
So I saves pounds so seeds. I started selling my seeds wholesale last week. http://www.ebay.com/itm/131097803011...84.m1555.l2649

Before I open this year in August:
1. I will save seeds first like last year.
2. I will properly use my Beautiful Baker Racks and cold storage for my supply of winter vegetables before I open in August.

Before I would use the Month of December after I close for my front Market, for my own winter food supply and others Farmer Markets.

Well At less I am learning from the high priced hybrid's in the stores, I am also glad they are selling organic fruits and vegetables too for these winter months.
