Marketing success



- Local farmer's markets are a great way to find good quality plants, foods and other goods, as well as a great way to support your local business economy.

- Jan Boucot spins wool from the alpacas she raises on her farm, and brings the hats, gloves, and scarves she makes to sell at the market.

- Stephan Kutsch harvests Maiitake mushrooms out at Snow Peak Mushroom farm in Lacomb, before they can packaged and delivered for sale.

- Dean Lebrett performs the evening milking as the first step in the cheese making process at the Fraga goat cheese farm in Sweet Home.

- Packaged Shiitake mushrooms just waiting to be taken home and eaten!
