Here's our new farm market set-up.

It's working out pretty well and I am especially pleased not to have to hoist that freezer into and out of the back of the pick-up truck several times each weekend.

We're using the trailer as our summer sales room. This way we can keep stocking the freezer when we come home from the processor which cuts down on the number of times we have to handle product and saves us quite a lot of time.

The tile floor Aaron and I laid is easy to wipe up, the chalkboard painted walls are great for drawing attention to specials, there are numerous, conveniently placed outlets (thanks Stateline Electric) and we have space for 2 freezers so we can put package deals in one freezer and have a very generous selection in the other freezer.


We're adding a new farm market to our already busy schedule. The city of McDonald is starting a farm market on Tuesday evenings. If the Saturday market in Howland doesn't work for you, stop in and see us in McDonald on Tuesday evenings from 4PM until 7PM.

  1. I live in Cincinnati now, but I'm from Youngstown. So glad to see you are farming this way. We have a lot of great farming practices going on too. Keep it up!
