How do we find people to call? If anyone in the county is raising
vegetables, it hasn't been obvious to me. I was the only one last season
who advertised vegetables for sale in the local papers. There are one or
two small farmstands, and we talked to them and/orleft fliers.

How do you sell meat at a Farmer's Market? Here we are not allowed to sell
meat unless it is in a running freezer (I tried selling from a cooler and
was told absolutely no)...there's no electricity at the Farmer's Market
site. Even selling eggs from a cooler is questionable under the code (they
must be kept at 40 degrees), but people get away with it.
