For years we used a full size van with a
sliding door on right side, 8 x 10 awning tarp mounted over side door on a
roll tube; outside edge supported by 2 legs/posts balasted with 2 buckets of
rocks and bungees.
{{{Insert rant here about this PP list not having a
place for files and photoes.}}
I like a false floor to keep tables and first
needed stuff handy without unloading
inventory to get at it.
We were 2 miles from home so that for strawberry
and sweetcorn season a second vehicle
made sense and transferred load into the van after
its load was set out for sale. In fall when 50lb potato and squash bags, big pumpkins , straw bales and corn stalk bundles
required, we used a baled hay wagon and left it on site all day,
(sometimes just tarped and leaf t as our market at that time was 6 days a week
at that site).
A young family from the Plain Folk community have
my space now and use the same style van;
have not missed a sale day in a year and a half,
and I mean all winter here in the middle of Maine.
