    Keep grinding my man! Your stuff looks great! That 2K day is probably just around the corner. Just don't get burned out in the mean time. It happens before you know it! I've always thought about turning an enclosed trailer into a giant cooler. It was one of the first ideas I had after our first market. You're the first I've seen actually do it! Freakin sweet!

    Nice setup and market! I also brought my cooler trailer to my market. Such a game changer to keep produce cold.

    • @chefsharvestfarm
      @chefsharvestfarm  5 днів тому

      Heck yeah 🙌 thank you 🙏 really helps with profitability too. Before I would just toss any greens after the market. But using the trailer I can still sell that product on my Tuesday deliveries because it stays cold all market.

      Yes! This video has been performing so well, that I figured selling to restaurants would make the most sense for my next video… so I recorded everything yesterday! Hope to get it edited and posted tomorrow. But if I don’t get it out tomorrow. I should be able to finish it within the next week! Thanks for the support 🙏

    • @chefsharvestfarm

      I can! But it sounds like a lack of fertility. You should try top dressing with an all purpose fertilizer. It should help. I use the neversink blend and I buy it from seven springs farm supply out of Virginia.
