We just display empty egg boxes stacked up along with a sign and picture about how we raise our hens.   Usually have no trouble selling them.

Subject: [Market-farming] Advice on selling more eggs, when only one doz displayed

 

Our market is now enforcing the regs that eggs be kept in a cooler, only one doz allowed for display.  Since we've begun that, our egg sales are MUCH slower.  Our primary egg vendor is sitting on 100 doz and counting, and is now trying to sell his hens.

 

Want to help him out, and our other egg vendors.

 

How to let customers know we still have local, free range eggs? 

 

Apparently, they're quite reluctant to buy what appears to be that last dozen on the table, not knowing cooler(s) full of eggs are waiting to be sold!!  Didn't know eggs were an impulse buy.

 

Any and all advice appreciated, as I'm on the committee that let the vendors know of these changes!
