Since you're probably doing meat this is a "duh," but I got some peaches from a farmers' market and the dude had them all sitting out in the bright sun and pretty much threw them into the bag. They decayed past edibility within 1.5 days. <br /><br />So moral of the story: people will start buying from you if you have a cool background to how the food was raised, but they'll run away quick if you don't handle it professionally and they end up buying crap as a result.mhcshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10327849859164878472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35188043.post-69258459414796201892010-04-26T16:36:58.074-05:002010-04-26T16:36:58.074-05:00Enjoyed reading through your blog...good luck at t...Enjoyed reading through your blog...good luck at the Farmer's Market!
