When we have a flush, we take ours to a processor (along with peppers and onions) and have them make salsa with our farm's label on it. Then we sell the salsa year round. It's an up front cost for you (processing) but you can increase cash flow year round. Not sure what's available in your area, but we travel 50 miles to the processor. We put the salsa on our website and on www.LocalHarvest.org and ship some too.
Good luck!

Well it seems that this year is the best tomato year in Kansas. I have so many picked and ready to sell, but not enough customers. Even large quantities at a discount price! I am afraid to know how much I have, (at least 400 pounds!) I know I need to pick probably another 200 pounds tomorrow. What do you do when you have too many tomatoes when lowering price doesn't work? I guess I will be canning salsa and tomatoes tomorrow or my chickens will be happy! We are selling tomatoes at $2.00 a pound, just FYI. Thanks, Jay |
