I think that one of the most important things that has accurred in the last couple years regarding agriculture is the reconnection of the consumer/customer to the farmer/farm.
Use this....If you are not a people person then forget what I've just said and about to tell you.
Make finding a name a contest for your current and soon to be customers. set up parameters and a time frame with prizes ie..Csa credit ...?
If you do not have a mailing list then you will and if you all ready have one it will be doubled

I have recently been able to return to my local farmers market with the shellfish I raise after a ten year prohibition of the sale of shellfish at an open market by the state of Massachusetts DPH.
I hope that more shellfish farmers will do this as well.

Subject: [Market-farming] Farm names
I've been wracking my brain trying to
come up with a farm name. I'm not a name person but after all the people
asking what my farm is called I decided to try to name it. I came up with
a few that were catchy but there seems to be something wrong with all the
ones except the ones I wouldn't remember LOL. I came up with Alchemy Acres
with the slogan "Turning Dirt into gold" but that has some chemical images
associated with it. I've been suggested names like Golden Acres just
Wyatt's Farm but those just don't seem memorable. Then I had ones I
thought of like Pear tree farm Pheasant farms, etc, I have some nice pear trees
and Pheasant on the property, but though those names are nice they
just don't grab me. I must be pretty naive because I didn't even think
about the last one I thought of, Edible Ecstasies, having sexual
connotations, but it was the first thing about every woman I told thought
of. Wonder what that means LOL. Anyway I don't want to make people
think I'm selling some sort of edible vegetable underwear so its back to the
drawing board. Any suggestions about how to go about this or anyone have a
good name?. I hesitated to post this to the board because people here
don't know me very well but I'm starting to run out of ideas, maybe I'm
expecting too much out of a name but its probably the first line of a good
marketing strategy I think, or at least it could be.
