Microgreens and the Farmers Market

[@jessli369]

I really like how you've shown how to interact with people. I really want to sell at the markets but am not great at small talk. I've watched many videos on KZbin and never seen actual interactions. Thank you, very helpful.

[@hardknoxtalkspodcast]

This is awesome, I just started growing microgreens a couple months ago as kind of a side hustle and im really loving it. Thanks for the behind the scenes look at how you interact!

[@Stephenzaffarano]

I will place 1 or 2 containers out for customers to see, but maintain the bulk of my microgreens in the cooler. Thinking about having 'model samples' made up for permanent display and using the chalkboard signs to show what I've got. I won't sell the packs I put out as they get too much sun (angle and time of day, placement of partner's tent, etc.) so I plan to eat those when the market ends that day. Ours is only 2 hours and small...but there are other neighboring markets that are 4 hours and attract more vendors and customers. Nice job on the video!

[@Hawaiiansunsets808]

Great job . Next year I will start attending my markets. 6 months advance to signup in y area . Did my first larger sale today for private event . Love it ., Thank you for sharing ,

[@outsidethebox218]

Fresh cut solves so many problems, but transport can be your biggest issue. People love the freshest option. I sell $4/oz, $3.5/oz for 4+ oz. Cutting fresh is also really easy to provide samples, samples are the biggest draw in for a lot of new people I sell to

[@5150yatesmusic]

That was great I love to see how people run things differently. Please tell your wife those boots are rockin.

[@grandmastersethy]

Very insightful video, thanks for sharing! Also, excellent customer service!

Wow!! Excelent!! Thankyou for sharing!!

[@johandahlstrom5347]

Really good! Thanks!

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

You ask, we deliver 😂

[@lizaparker5626]

So happy to see a real time market for some ideas! Today I’m a part of my first market!! I’m wondering how you keep your microgreens for up to 2 weeks!! My greens are good about 10.

[@straightfacedwithluecke3262]

A great video, thank you! We are a Vermicomposting business that is interested in offering both vermicompost and microgreens as a complement. Looking forward to watching all your other videos.

[@growintogether627]

Awesome video and thanks a lot for sharing! What point of sales app is best to use?

[@stevenbriggs784]

how are you going now, 1 year later? :)

[@squareinchgardener5975]

Thanks for sharing this! Do you sell them in mixes or individual varieties?

[@Heroitch52]

wouldnt it be possible to have the shelves closer? Maybe like a 10" shelf gap from top and bottom? That should still have good airflow right?

[@Similee]

This was excellent brotha

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Appreciate that!

[@JamesGough1]

Thanks for sharing.

[@drangpo6904]

what are the sizes of those containers and can you share the link to where you buy them

[@robhermany]

Great tablecloth, where/how did you get that done? Is it vinyl?

[@gourmetgreens23]

Thank you for this video, a lot of helpful tips.

[@GreenPaperProducts]

Such a great trip to the Farmers Market! Thanks for sharing!!

[@ianvandermerwe7388]

Hey guys, awesome video. Wearing headset and can hear everyone clearly. Some great tips and ideas for setting up at a farmers market. Thank you for your videos and channel, its really helpful as I would like to get in to Microgreens myself here in South Africa. Greetings :)

[@staceball4167]

Is there 4 oz of greens inside the containers or is the container sized 4 oz?

[@janicejurgensen2122]

Awesome tutorial and info. Ty

[@66Ack]

So at a farmers market can I leave my microgreens out or should I keep them in a fridge? Also what size containers do you have at markets

[@bred4strength284]

I’m in NEPA so thanks for making a super relevant video! Has your set up changed since the temperature has gotten hotter? I’m setting up at my first one in a few days and am terrified how the Microgreens will work in this heat! Looking forward to any advice.

[@polkcountykwikdry]

Great Video

[@lifestylevideos191]

I checked your website.OMG its very wonderful!Did you design by yourself ? Made website with (wix,square...)? I am a new bee in the microgreens business 🙂

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Check out our video On branding your Microgreen company 🥰🥰

[@AJ_Lucas]

Just a thought, what about having 1 tray sectioned with different microgreens out for sacrificial display if it drives up sales?

[@goldenbee9978]

How many microgreens are in one container? Thanks for all the information!

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Some 1oz, 2oz, 4oz varieties

[@tbellsurbanfarm7810]

@@PrincetonMicrogreens what size container do you use for 1-2oz’s of microgreens? I love your videos. Thx for sharing.

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Thanks for the positive feedback! 🥰

[@3ddiev]

Great stuff, love to see the business aspects of growing. At the markets that you spend more time at do you find people starting long conversations and asking lots of questions about the growing process or are transactions normally quick like shown here?

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

It's about a 75% quick now that ive been there for a while and most people know about them. It gradually gets faster as you do more markets and people are educated with returning customers.

[@DailyPayBootcamp]

Can you break down the size containers you use and what you charge? I’m sorry if you already have a video about this and I missed it. If you do, can you link to your video here. Thanks.

[@cjfredi]

Cool video. TY

[@salvanaihtisham1803]

Amazing content, as always. Sharing your container sizes and rates will be very helpful. Starting mine on june 12 and freaking out, stressed.

Also, don’t freak out! It’s actually super fun! It’s like playing lemonade stand as a kid ☺️☺️

[@gardeningwitheve7164]

Great video. Where is your black knife from?

[@forthosewhoHUNGER]

May I ask? Which size containers do you use? I’m at your link to the green non-plastic containers but which sizes? Di you have item numbers?

[@taylanakan60]

sympathetic seller, I would buy.

[@Calvin2030]

hi mate nice videos...what weight are the boxes being sold?

Where do you get your containers from?

[@SassyLeeHillius]

Thanks I'm contemplating how it will be..this was refreshing ..do you suggest having bags or not?

[@caseynelson8015]

You guys are awesome! This gives me hope in my area. Where do you get your containers? How much do you charge per container size?

[@jacoposchenetti2612]

What about the receipt?

[@mad_scadd89]

How much do you usually make at farmers market?

[@pamc4335]

[@TheAmytan]

Hello Peter, thank you for all you help and videos. It has helped me ton with starting in growing microgreens and you’re amazing and very thorough with your explanations! My question is which loyalty reward apps do you use for your customers? Thanks, Amy

[@wijn1008]

what you should do is take a juicer, juice a bit up and mix it with some applejuice or something. Put small glasses out so people can taste "health" smoothies. or take out some crackers with cheese spread and sprinkle some spicy salad mix on top. So people have testers and also an idea what you can do with it..

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Unfortunately the local farmers' markets here are very strict and see that as Food prep which comes with a whole another group of licenses and complications 😢

[@kevinfilbin7688]

They don't allow food prep because the don't want food trucks taking vendor space away from produce which is the whole point of having a farmers market

[@lifestylevideos191]

Also what are you using for credit card payment system?Square...?

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

Clover, but basically the same thing.

[@cannotbeshaken7889]

I really want to keep my seeds in Jars, but I thought they aren't suppose to be exposed to light? Anyone know?

[@АндрейА-б2г]

How many grams of microgreens are in one box?

[@forthosewhoHUNGER]

Great video. Thank you. Where do you find the nutritional info on microgreens? Everyone says they are so much more nutritious (40x on broccoli as you said) but I can’t find info on it anywhere!

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

They’ve done some small studies at some big name colleges like Stanford on a few microgreens such as broccoli and conducted a report. But there’s nothing released publicly on the actually individual serving size daily nutritional value quite yet.

[@forthosewhoHUNGER]

@@PrincetonMicrogreens So how can all of these microgreens growers claim they are 40x more nutritious when there is truly no info available?

[@captkirk2670]

Is there a way to prevent mold without using hydrogen peroxide? Great content!

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

I’m toying with Vinegar right now as a substitute, and seems to be working well.

[@captkirk2670]

Even for the harder stuff to grow? Like amaranth?

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

@@captkirk2670 if your having mold issues with amaranth it’s too wet. Amaranth loves a borderline dry environment. Your medium should barely be moist.

[@captkirk2670]

@@PrincetonMicrogreens I'm trying to grow them for myself and I'm facing mold issues with amaranth and purple radish :( Idk what to do and i'm really turned off to using chemicals

[@Hawaiiansunsets808]

@@captkirk2670 I never had single issues with Rambo , Amaranth its very tricky . I personally don't seed dense and have fan running on if for most part . I do use diluted food grade peroxide and that works well. Food Grade Peroxide its deferent form regular one you buy at the store it doesn't contain certain stabilizers like : acetanillide , phenol, sodium stanate or tetrasodium pyrophoshate , Its simply hydrogen and oxygen only . Elements that are around you at all times . Yes you need to be carful with it but its used in many food applications at all times including processing cheese and bleaching wheat flour.

[@carlydimke7972]

How much product do you bring with to farmers market?

[@mitchem309]

I'm not sure if hes still growing microgreens . Havnt seen any new videos in a while.

[@artlecl]

I want to know how to calculate the price of my product? Which variants I have to take in consideration for the final price? Like: - price of seeds - price of soil - energy and watering cost (how do I measure these?) - packaging + labels What else? Do I make a final sum of everything and measure the product by Ounces and divide? I’m so lost at how to calculate the price. 🫠🫥

[@erikvankemenade1928]

So, now i understand why i am seeing a lot of videos from folks who grow microgreens in their basements or whatever who are making big bucks. If tou can sell this 2 ounce container for 8 dollars its easy to get rich. Where i live, a 2 ounce (60 grams) container of biological microgreens in the supermarket is around 2.19 dollars.

[@JevDocumentary2000]

ok

[@oneshiftmexico2188]

Wake me up when he's done and out of business 😅😅

[@tweyland1971]

Suggestion: Take off the mask. It really helps relate to people in a positive way. I cut at the market. People love being able to see them alive, and they don't seem to care that I do not have a mask on.

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

At the time this was shot, it was mandated outside in the county the market was in. But now it’s no longer required… Finally! 🥰

[@PrincetonMicrogreens]

@gods son most markets only allow one kind of each vendor. Our market accepted us as the sole Microgreen vendor and will never allow another. These are the types of markets you should track down!

[@nickkrug8157]

Are you still getting along with your Chinese wife ?
