It is interesting to see the range of prices for eggs. The supply and demand theory still reigns. As a lettuce grower I was interested in seeing the range in those prices. The comparisons are irrelevent though unless it is known how much lettuce, eggs, etc are being sold. In other words, it's easy to sell 10 pounds of lettuce mix at $9/lb but maybe not so easy to sell 100 pounds at that price. One thing is certain, it is important for farmers to make a profit from their labors. If we don't we'll soon have no small family farms. Pat, south central Kansas

I can't believe that only one state over from you, they sell free range
eggs for $3 per dz! I sure wish you could get that for yours! We will see
in a couple of years when we have ours what I will be able to get for them
then. I don't want to charge more than that.it is just not fair to the
people! I know I can't loose my shorts, but I want to be fair too. Just my
way of seeing things though! Which is why I will always be poor.but
happy!!!!

Middlefield, Oh
Wow; your Farmer's Market is a world away from our rural northern
Pennsylvania Farmers' Market! We have 3 or 4 veggie vendors and can't get
more than supermarket prices for our produce. I raised the price of my
free-range eggs to $1.50/doz. and they didn't sell; I'm back down to
$1.25/doz this year.
