I only did a farmer's market one year, but you will be educating the public constantly. Just get used to it. I suspect, if you do the same market in subsequent years the % of weird comments may get better, but I doubt they will ever stop. Do you put out any signage? I have a set of posters I printed and laminated that are very good, they were by Cornell, if you can't find them, send me a PM with your email and I will send you the posters (there are 5 or 6). I had them blown up to 12x18 (or maybe it was 11x17) and laminated. I still use them in my sugarhouse and also I put them up when I do a school presentation.
My sales now are local at the sugarhouse, or at my house and one retail outlet plus thru my website.
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
