On my  small scale "Farm" in Kansas, I have been picking Broccoli for a month now.  I have been selling it for $3.00 a pound. I have been selling out most of the time.  My markets are more rural and we don't get the high urban center prices. I am happy with $3.00.  I have not advertised the actual price per pound though.  I just bag it up into $1 bags.  It is easy to sell, since it is "Just a Buck".

Cabbage, how big are the heads?  We had a producer tonight sell small cabbage heads for $0.50 each. The heads were bigger than a Softball, but not much.

How about Cauliflower, I have been selling beautiful, bug free heads for $4.00 each. They are as big as my hand with fingers spread out, 6-8 inches across.

What are y'all getting??  We're heading to market this week for the first
time in 3 weeks...we had nothing (thanks to too much rain & hail).   Now we
have everything...all at once!!!!!!!!!
