There just aren't enough customers in our area to provide for a family
income for most direct farm marketers. We have a few CSA's, one large one
that is the exception, but even with their gross sales, their net is not
fantastic.
You simply can not get blood out of a turnip no matter how much you might
wish to.
You are fortunate if you can do well in your area and I wish you the best.
Sincerely,
