Thank you Kurt. This helps. We have one very low priced farmstand in the area (but their tomatoes are trash), so get lots of price comments (but also get comments that our prices are very reasonable or even "good").

A dollar/pound is too little unless you are trying to move a pile at seasons

them in pints and quarts and convert the per pound price to pint or quart
prices.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit

I price them at 1$/lbs too. I think it is actually fairly cheap, I
would not go any lower than that.

What do you charge for unripe green tomatoes, relative to perfect ripe
ones?

I charge $4/lb for ripe and was asked for green tomatoes. Priced them
at $1/lb and the folks didn't take them.
