We’re trying to start up a market of our own. My husband and I farm for a living, and we are little by little getting into produce instead of only growing commodity crops.
Some of my neighbors sell mainly at their home but the majority grow for the Louisville, Indianapolis market and the melons, sweet corn, pumpkins etc go out by the semi loads.....
One neighbor has a four acre plot of produce she sells to a stand at the Louisville farmers market. SHe didn’t want to hire help or be tied down at the house minding a stand. She makes more doing that than her husband does at his job with one of the electrical companies.
