It's not a matter nof what you can grow unless you have a very short growing
season. It's all about what you can SELL. What are the big markets in your
area?
- Retail farmer's markets
- Wholesale farmer's markets
- Direct marketing to restaurants
- Direct marketing to consumers
- Marketing to wholesalers
> Can one make $41K net a year selling flowers, herbs and berries??? My
instincts tell me $41K would be a difficult goal to reach.
If you had 6,000-9,000 sq ft of greenhouses and good marketing venues and 2
people working it, you could net that much.
