How the business is going
Posted: Sat Nov 13, 2010 2:24 am
We have had a lots of ups and downs with our dream to become commercial green vegie growers.
We put a sign at the beginning of this week and are averaging 2 customers per day. It is not going to makeus rich but it is helping to pay the electricity bill for the system. We are going to do a leaflet drop in a week or so (would do it now but we are running low on lettuce and that is what most people want)
We are also in talks with a church organisation who if it works out would take all the veg we can grow. they sell vegie boxes at cost to needly families so the children have a healthy diet. They buy direct from the growers to keep cost down.
It is all small steps, but in the right direction
