[Market-farming] bottom line

They're sold by the bunch and loose.  If they're going to the local store they're in half pound and one pound bunches. The store keeps .25 cents per bunch.  When customers come here they're loose and in whatever amount they want. We aren't officially open in April so customers have to come to the door.  If I don't have them ready we go to the greenhouses to get them. We follow organic methods but aren't certified.  $5 at the start, $4 when everyone else has them.  I start harvesting over wintered greens in April and continue into November or December.

  Robin,

  How do you sell them (bunch, pound, etc) and for how much?  

  Conventional or organic?

  Farmer's market, on-farm market, or where?

  Thanks in advance.

    Beet greens.  Isn't that wild?  Beet greens. I have them two months earlier than the competition. Followed by tomatoes and peas.
