I have been contacted by a bride who is planning her wedding for October, and wants 500 small pumpkins for baskets to be placed on tables, etc...  She mentioned that the grocery store price of  99 cents each scared her, and wondered what I would sell them to her for.  Any suggestions?  This will be my first time doing something like this, and I was wondering what some of you might do.  Any input is greatly appreciated.
I also wanted to say that a couple of weeks ago, I went to the best farmer's market I have ever seen,  in Charleston, SC.  They were jam-packed with people!  They had those big blow-up jumpy things and slides to entertain the kiddies, as well as a number of artist booths, a couple of booths that were cooking crepes, omlettes, doughnuts, etc..., plant vendors, cut flowers, handmade artisan breads and pastas, along with some great looking produce - plus live music!  I was very impressed!

Again, thanks for any pumpkin advice you can give me!
