Jay, Talk up your specific varieties and the flavor of your tomatoes. Give samples if necessary. If you have better flavor and different varieties, you should still able to get your price -- not from all the customers, of course, as some will always want only cheap; but maybe from enough customers to sell your crop. And this may be a short glut -- you'll probably have tomatoes for the rest of the summer, right? So don't chase the price down; once you've dropped it you'd have trouble raising it again. Make your winter tomato sauce these couple of weeks, if necessary! (But this is why I hate markets that allow resellers, at least non-producer resellers buying from anywhere) -- Rivka; Finger Lakes NY, Zone 5 mostly Fresh-market organic produce, small scale |
