hmm, I don't think you should call them 'artichokes' ;-}
Wow! It seems that I've been burning myself on head lettuce. This fall we've been selling fat heads of red and of green lettuce for $2 each. They have sold like hot cakes. ;-) And they have been SO VERY GOOD!
I'll move the bag up to $3. A gallon bag! Wow! Glad we spoke since I serve a METRO area!!

Not in the same bag, of course.
I'm preparing an off-season produce offering for my CSA customers
(they will pay by the 'unit') and I'm wondering what people sell
Jerusalem Artichokes for per pound and, also, I have some half grown
lettuce I'd like to cut and sell by the bag. How do you price that
this time of year?
My lettuce this year was a gallon bag (usually 3 to 4 varieties in a bag, young lettuce, whole heads) for $3.00. I generally keep the same price all year. Bags usually weigh half a pound or so; more when the lettuce is bigger.
Market is in a rural area.
No clue about the artichokes, sorry.
