We have seven families that do workshares with us and part of what they are waiting for is large amounts of tomatoes to can. I highly recommend looking into this especially with the economy in the take like it is. Unemployment is 11.3% here in the Cincinnati area and rising. Three of our workers are exceptional. One of them is a full-time violinist with the local symphony. Free food and a chance to work out without having to actually pay for a gym membership...in return after a couple hours of good hands on training, you get four to five hours of labor out of each and it makes a HUGE amount of difference, especially from the ones that REALLY enjoy doing it. I sell at a single market and a restaurant and price between 2.00 and 4.00 a pound depending on the type. Same deal with squash and cucumbers. Almost nothing goes to waste save what gets a bit taken out of it by a raccoon or turtle. Richard Stewart Carriage House Farm North Bend, Ohio An Ohio Century Farm Est. 1855 (513) 967-1106 |
