Farm Small: Running Very Profitable Self-Serve Farmstands (FSFS234)

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In this episode of Farm Small, Farm Smart, we’re talking to Joel Konrad of Konrad Farm Markets who primarily sells pumpkins. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Joel’s business model is both interesting and simple: he rents out spaces on busy streets and sets up self-service farm stands made of repurposed metal trailers. Despite the model’s simplicity, a few things go into the planning: choosing a well-populated street, choosing a property with good visibility, enough space for multiple cars to park at a time, and a safe spot to turn around.  When it comes to pricing, their method is equally as simple: eyeballing—largely dependent on the sizes rather than the weight.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Connect with Joel:</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><a href= "https://www.instagram.com/konradfarmmarkets/">https://www.instagram.com/konradfarmmarkets/</a></span></p> <p> </p> <p class="p2"><span class="s2" style="font-size: 12pt;">Increase farm efficiency with the <a href= "https://www.paperpot.co/"><span class="s3">Paperpot Transplanter and Other Small Farm Equipment</span></a> at <a href= "https://www.paperpot.co/"><span class= "s3">https://www.paperpot.co/</span></a></span></p> <p class="p2"><span class="s2" style="font-size: 12pt;">Follow Diego on IG <a href= "https://instagram.com/diegofooter"><span class="s3">https://instagram.com/diegofooter</span></a><br /> Follow PaperpotCo on IG <a href= "https://instagram.com/paperpot"><span class= "s3">https://instagram.com/paperpot</span></a></span></p> <p class="p1"><span class="s1" style="font-size: 12pt;">Podcasts by Diego Footer:<br /> Microgreens: <a href="https://apple.co/2m1QXmW"><span class= "s3">https://apple.co/2m1QXmW</span></a><br /> Vegetable Farming: <a href="https://apple.co/2lCuv3m"><span class= "s3">https://apple.co/2lCuv3m</span></a><br /> Livestock Farming: <a href="https://apple.co/2m75EVG"><span class= "s3">https://apple.co/2m75EVG</span></a><br /> Large Scale Farming: <a href= "ht
