Sales and Orders Are Steady!!

Squash, cabbage, onions, broccoli, cauliflower - now green beans and cucumbers - are all starting to mature and produce! We even have been selling some green tomatoes, it's a Southern thing to fry them. Saturday we sold out after three hours - even the stir fry ingredients I just picked for supper! And the demand is greater than the amount of ripening produce that we pick in the mornings. Since we are not on a main thoroughfare of the city it will only get better with advertising (we have done none yet).
I can't wait for Wednesday to open back up! We have met some of our neighbors that had just waved before, and have made new customers of friends of friends. Have I mentioned how well we are eating now with all the fresh vegetables on our table?
This picture is the stand we put up, but before we opened with vegetables and plants. It's full now and the small garden is right behind it for a great backdrop.





I just can't imagine anything else so worthwhile and so fulfilling as providing good, wholesome nourishment to the public. And with the future of our food supply so much in question I hope to someday be able to teach others how to do the same. 




This is one profession that is good for the mind, the soul - and the body!
