Subject: [Market-farming] Small
Pumpkins
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!
