  • In continuation of our Summer Farm Tour series we are joined, again, by the great Clara Coleman of Four Season Farm in Harborside, Maine.
    In this video, she discusses the VERY rural farm stand at Four Season Farm, some of the history and nuance of making it work, and some things to consider if you're thinking of doing something similar on your own farm.

    My goal is to have a small market garden. I'm getting ready to plant garlic in 2 to 3 weeks.

    You deserve the highest praise for your accomplishments! Imagine: To be on a promintory into the NORTH Atlantic (in Maine, no less...) and a successful business concern (in agriculture..!) is laudible, at the very least. Thank "Farmer Jesse" for the tip.

      All praise goes to her father, Elliot Coleman one of the Godfathers of market farming space. A true innovator.

    This is a very smart marketing move. We all want something exclusive and just about croak when we miss out. If you’re open every day, I might think about it but likely never go. And your veggies look wonderful.

    "2 hours equals 25% of the profit" does not equate to "4 hours equals 50% of the profit"... "4 hours will likely equal the same 25% of the profit"

    • @goodboysongs
      @goodboysongs 9 месяцев назад +4

      And $2.50 for an EAR of corn! I’ve seen as high as $1/ear ($6/half dozen) in Canada, but that’s $0.65/ear in the US, so about 300% higher than the most expensive I’ve ever seen.
      Edit: I did notice that the sign says “summer pricing begins July 1” so perhaps that’s super early pricing, which would be expensive to grow those crops especially if grown in a greenhouse, ie. corn and potatoes. I’m almost thinking why bother waste expensive greenhouse space on those crops but oh well, different strokes.
