Our Farmers Market Experience! On The Grow | Gardening | Gardening Business | Indoor Farming

💥With the farmers market season starting up in the Spring time, it's always a good idea to learn how to sell your microgreens, how to prepare for a market, and what you should expect when selling Microgreens to your local community.

Keep in mind that farmers markets are one of the many ways that people turn growing Microgreens into a business. It's also a great way to enhance your skills and meet potential clients that you can start a Microgreen delivery service!

✅ In this video we share our experience at our very first farmers market in Lucas, TX - along with how we priced our Microgreens, displayed our products, engaged with the community and more!

We had a complete blast sharing our greens with our local community and look forward to many more markets like this!! 🥳

Hope you enjoy and find some good take-aways from our advice!!!

I'm just coming across this video. I was there on your first time at the Lucas Farmers Market. I remember having a great visit and walking away with the Triple Mix. It was my first time trying Microgreens and 3 years later I've starting growing my own using your kits!!

Definitely have Mandy do micro green Recipes!!!

Just had my first Farmers Market here in N. Houston and everything you said here is SO true. It's probably not for everyone but I absolutely LOVED talking with people and selling nutritious, hard-to-find foods.

Vendors said I must be a natural salesman but the truth is, I just love the product so it's pretty damn easy!! :D

So far this is my favorite Microgreens channel. You guys put out so much information (for free), that other Microgreens farmers do not provide unless you give hundreds of $$$ for their information. Thank you so much for your information!! And for that, I will be purchasing my supplies from you.

[sonjalarsen]

Inspiring! Thank you! I’ve recently started eating and growing Microgreens and I can’t stop. So much fun! Keep making these videos. So helpful! At 62 years young, my health is improving! Thanks😀

[bhazleton]

I can get enough of your videos. Your commitment to excellence is impressive. Everything about both of you shows the utmost professionalism in everything you do. Would love more Farmer's Market videos. Thank you.

[annettetipton]

You both are so great with all you do!!! I have learned so much more from all your videos. When I learned that 1 cup of broccoli micro greens were equivalent to three large heads., And the vitamins and minerals that prevent cancer... I chose to follow your lead. To prevent cancer and live beyond 66 years. I love you guys and please keep on sharing.You guys are awesome...

Rather than having to run all over town...how about just setting up how ever many drop- off centers...like gyms, health food stores, co-ops...a couple of times a week, whatever and have customers pre-order and pay on your website.... I order farm fresh eggs like that and pick them up at a computer repair store....works elegantly....least amount of effort for the biggest impact....and get reviews from your your site, or at your market....and print them....also hook up with your local Chamber of Commerce, Small/Local Business, etc can get a lot of support and free advertising from these agencies...What you're doing is lifting people's quality of health which reflect in their lives...ya can't lose

[suzetteparsons]

Thank you for the step by step, helps calm my nerves to begin growing and selling. And for reassuring that my natural love for the customer (standing and making eye contact) is a marketable skill.
I appreciate your encouragement, and love your combined energy.🔥

Hi I have been fallowing your YouTube channel, I live in UK and have to tell you is one the best you tube channel.
That is so amazing for you guys to share all this info for free specially your experience at Farmer's market.
I wish you all the success and say thank you for getting me into growing my own microgreen .

[elcidbob]

If you're not physically able to stand all day, bar height stools and things like director's chairs are a far, far better option than one of those low folding chairs.

[joannedonovan]

Thanks for this informative video! It was wild when you opened up that $5.00 baggie and all of those microgreens exploded! You might have sold more of those if you actually showed how much was in them!! Cool! I've been watching all your videos for the past 3 days (I'm off work for 3 nights), & really learning a lot! I ordered some of those green/white sprouting trays, a knife, and some Coco Coir from Amazon!! I love microgreens, and am looking forward to growing different kinds! (It's just me in a 1-BR apartment, but I've got plants outside, now microgreens & sprouts inside! Fun, fun!!) Keep up the good work!!

I find your videos amazing! My absolute favourite appreciated video is how to set up and sell- how to engage with customers.

I had scanned YouTube for “farmers marketing selling” and finally I found your video. Absolutely the best information.

I applied your techniques on engaging, no chair sitting, samples and sold out at 2/3 markets that I was a vendor.

In reference to cell and chair slouching, I realized that the customer does not want to “bother” that vendor.

Hands down you two have the best video.

Oh I should mention I have a business degree and was never taught any of these sales techniques.

Betcha the university would hire you to teach your course on selling and all the other areas that you have success in.

I would have taken your course and skipped all the other time consuming information seeking.

You two are awesome!!!

[Yogaonth]

Hello Mandi and CJ. You guys are so awesome. Thank you for teaching me all new things. As is I am shearing microgreen with frends. I sure do enjoy watching you two ☺️ oh I just had 79th birthday.

[kianaj]

Hello I’m really interested in how you did your pricing do you think you could go over pricing you did for each variety and amount and how you got there that would be so helpful!!

[cynthiapm]

Selling in a bundle, not just a mix because everyone loves bundles. I've seen farmers market 5 salads in 5 separate containers (not plastic bags) as a bundle and are the first to sell out. I think because your lunch is done for the week. One stood out to me. It came with little recipe card like this salad goes great with these nuts or theses dried berries or fruit and this particular balsamic.

[doncline]

great advice, you two do a wonderful job explaining, teaching and your tests ore so interesting

[mitchem]

Omg I love the makeup pic! My boyfriend and I are buying our first rack system! Thanks for the vid and we love the experiment vids!

[winkfinkerstien]

How cool! I'm in Plano and wanted to say Hello. I've been watching your videos and didn't realize y'all were so close by. Thanks for the videos & Best Wishes for your continued success!

[andreavorfreude]

How awesome I didn't know ya'll were so close. I grow Microgreens in Caddo Mills attending a lot of markets this season. Thanks for sharing all of your information 🌱🙌🌱
