Welcome to the roadside stall club Linda🙌🏼 So happy to see you all set up. It looks great and I’m wishing you every success with it. Your honey is beautiful, so I’m sure you’ll soon get regular customers once they taste it. xx Cathi xx 😘
Hi hello Linda, you're a very hard working lady , everything you do seemed to have great success , your honey , look amazingly good , bonne chance pour ce magnifique projet de vente direct de chez vous,love from 🇫🇷 ❤
This is such good news!! Best wishes for great success. It's a lovely little stand, full of the treats that your viewers envy, so the locals will surely appreciate the quality and variety you have to offer.
Thanks Ruby - I don’t expect the locals to come rushing in but I’m sure overtime the customers will build! It’s lovely now it’s out there that I can grab excess plants and plonk them out there , giveaway excess seeds, maybe might make some beeswax candles and pop them out - possibilities are endless!!
It looks gorgeous! What a beautiful big honey harvest. Im sure that was satisfying, especially watching as the golden honey poured ibto the jars . Well done yay for another roadside stall on the map . Thanks for sharing lovely 🍯 ❤
The worst thing that can happen is that the stand just sits there and no one comes (I have had some customers already though!!). It is a little out of my comfort zone but with so much honey from my honeybees I really need to move it - kind of forces you to overcome discomfort!!
Yes I get heaps of honey and I definitely don’t take too much - no sugar feeding here. I actually have honey frames in reserve for the ladies in winter if they do get too low. Busy bees indeed! Slow sales at this point but some, so it’s a start!!
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture I keep about 15 hives of bees. I organize the 700-year old Conwy Honey Fair every 13th September. It's an ancient Royal Charter market. We have up to 30 local beekeepers selling honey and about 40 other stalls. We all sell loads of honey at a good price. We don't get the amount of honey you get. I expect your boysenberry jam sells well. I have a boysenberry plant, lovely fruit.
@petermcfadden9426 15 hives would keep you busy! Sounds like a fantastic market - 700 years old - wow!! Such history. I’ll have to look it up and see what I can find online!! Nice to hear a little about you - thanks Peter! (And yes the boysenberry jam is fantastic)
I love this, thanks Linda. I'm a way from producing enough for me yet, but i'm hoping to do similar in a few years. We also have a tiny foodbank in town which i'd like to contribute fresh food to.
@huttonsvalleypermaculture they'll love yours! Cinderella would be happy 🧡 i think mine may have been in too late and had powdery mildew i missed, from covering up from the heat 🥵 but it looks like i may still get a few. I didn't have enough proper shadecloth ... so poor airflow. Until my seedlings are ready to go in i'll keep trying 🤣
Look fantastic, and I wish you every success. I'm in Victoria. I am curious because I would love to do similar one day once I move to some dream property - Did you need to apply for permits or council approval etc for set up? Can you say what was needed?
I just did it! There needs to be more local food and I don’t think councils and regulatory bodies are always supportive of micro businesses and can make things too hard. Oh well - we’ll see what happens- I’ll keep you posted on how it goes - successful or shut down!!!
@@huttonsvalleypermaculture I completely agree. I wish you every success. I would love to be close by and get some of that gorgeous honey. I hope you have huge sell-outs.
@lindabennett4842 thanks Linda! Sell outs would be wonderful but I expect sales to be slow to start but hope for gradual increase as people start to know I’m here 🤞🤞
