I do go to 1 Farmers Market that charges 5% of sales, plus a very small yearly fee, it is a year round Market. I only go in the winter. I hate being charged percentages, as I don’t like to keep track of my sales and I forget a lot of the time. I know there is another Market in Vermont that charges 15%, I don’t go to that one. I think that is too steep.

I think it is wrong for vendors to sell bought produce and it really hurts us real farmers. I don’t compete with those, as my Markets are very strict, as it should be.
