Selling at Farmers Market

The first thing you need to do in order to start selling at Farmer’s Market would be to make a checklist of everything you need to be prepared to set up and sell. Farmer'S market can open the door to all who are involved. You need to do this first to ensure everything you need is picked and packed up ahead of time. Selling at Farmer’s Market requires a good bit of work in order to prepare the produce you want to sell, transporting it safely to the location early before customers arrive and possibly needing to supply your stand or display. Once you are prepared with what you will need, one needs to determine what you are going to sell. You could sell a variety of fruits and vegetables sold in baskets, fresh meats, baked goods, canned sauces, vegetables, jams and a variety of other options. You want also to make sure you stand out amongst the others; display what you are selling in an appealing way such as if you were all organic. Next you would need to make sure to get certified by the Board of Health in your country. Become sturdy and strong in what you will be selling. Checking out the competition you will encounter and what area in the market you will be located and decide the products on which you will be selling and the prices. Once the market chooses you, you want to decide on how you will display your products. You may already have items readily available or need to get a few things, whether you want tables, a stand, produce sitting on a truck or bales of hay, in baskets or hanging, etc. One may have to buy a few things to accomplish your look. You want to make sure that you have everything you need picked, packed baked, and ready to go unless, of course, you like to get up real early then feel free to bake and do all the preparation in the morning right before you need to beat the market. You do not want to prepare too early as far as some of the produce goes because you do not want anything to spoil too soon.
