Wow, I had no idea big boxes were charging that much. My local hardware store has gone up to around $7 for a single start and more than that for a 6-cell.

I take a $1 deposit per pot when I sell things in my Bootstrap Farmer stuff. I have never had a complaint but rarely does anyone come back to get their deposit. More often they tell me they liked mine because they wanted to keep the pot/tray.

You have to wonder when all this price raising coupled with increasing costs across the board along with inflation is going to cripple the local farm and farmer.
