We were members of a producer only market for several years and unfortunately, there were people who were bringing questionable produce.  Also, unfortunately as you all must know if you have any age on you at all, not all people can be taken at their word.  If I were a member of a producer only market I would be very disappointed if site visits were not made as a follow up on complaints or concerns voiced by other vendors or customers.  You would be doing your producer vendors a disservice by not taking those steps.  How is this for a form:
 
I went to John Brown's farm on May 17 and he was growing greens, cucumbers, etc.  He had watermelon, tomatoes, etc. planted for future harvest.  He grows on 6 acres.  Signed, Site Visitor

If I cant be taken at my word and sell my product, they can kiss my fat,
old, pimply, pink yankee arse. Years ago I stood many times and recited a
pledge that, in part, said that "economic justice can best be won by free
men through free enterprise". I cannot believe that the products of our
modern public shool systems have turned their backs on such a noble
sentiment.

Bye Bye
