If you’re brand new to farming and thinking you need to lower your prices so that you can stay competitive with Walmart, Amazon or your local grocery store, this episode is for you.

But that isn’t going to be you — You’re different. You’re different because you’re HERE. You want to serve your community in a way that feels good. You love the farm life and want to keep doing what you’re doing. You deserve to pass your heritage onto your children. And you will — when you price your farm products for profit.
