I feel they should invest in a credit card machine that takes credit cards, debit cards, & bridge cards and they would do even more business. They would actually do more seeing how hardly any of the other farmers have a machine. I can’t tell you just how many times I have wanted to use my cc & no one takes them. It would be well worth the investment. You have to spend a little to earn more than your fellow farmers!!!

A great way to spread the purchases out, especially when food has to be processed for storage.

However, that isn’t how the real world works for me just yet. BUT I do make it to local farmer’s markets on the weekends. I love being able to purchase from local farmers, especially those with fresh honey and maple syrup. Something about those fresh products tastes completely different than those with preservatives and other commercially-produced additives! I love your tip to bring small bills. This is something I always forget to do! I usually remember my reusable bags, but small bills slip my mind. Thanks for the tips!

I must admit that most of these advices are good for just any market. Especially important is the first one. You really have to get there early!

Should I put tomatoes in the fridge, what about peaches? They can give you proper storing techniques so that the food can last longer – and you can avoid that – disintegrated watery kale in the plastic bag in the bottom of the crisper! :)

Reminds me of Europe and how they enjoy and take time to appreciate food and family.
Neat app! Might have to download that one. This inspired me to head out and find our local farmers market this long weekend. I’ll be sure to remember these tips.
Thanks!
