Market Farming

Courtney--In our area, Northern Idaho, the going market price for homemade 
jams using organic fruit is $4.00 per 8oz jar. I'm doing raspberry and 
huckleberry. I used to put up elderberry jam and wine many years ago on 
the East coast....it was the best. Sora at Paradise Valley Organics 


Sora, that sounds great!  We have been selling raspberry jam in little half 
pint jars for $2.50 at market.  Maybe they are even smaller than that.  But 
it is not mine so I am not sure of the size.  It is tiny though!  I was going 
to sell mine in half pints and see if I can't get $3 or $3.50 for that.  I 
won't know until I try!
