ok my tea was a bust even marked it at $2.00 a gal. i think because i need to change my label to fertilizer everyone asked me you drink it? not it is for you plants the label said feed plants once a week. but reading chicken manure tea makes them think it is for them lol. i won't say what i am thinking. my lettice sold very well and most of the eggs went when we dropped our price. i'll tell ya'll what it was hard at $1.50 a doz or 2 doz for $2.50. i don't know what is happening people drive around in brand new cars but won't pay that extra buck for organic veggies and eggs. it was very cold today so plants aren't selling yet. i did sell 5 plants. many tourist in town so that did not help produce. but i was not alone in not having a great day except for the people selling cakes and breads they always sell out. one person asked if i was going to make catnip toys again so i guess i will have to sew up a few. i do wish the new houston market wasn't so far and expensive to set up a booth. i am almost ready just to set up on the side of the road maybe i will have better sales. i do not see this one getting any better but i sure hope i am wrong. hope you all have better markets.
