Farm gate stall

The wheels are in motion for our Kosharra Springs enterprise.

On the Easter long weekend we decided to invite the public to Kosharra Springs. We wanted to test the waters, to see if people would drive up the driveway to buy our fresh produce.

Chestnuts, Carrots, Sweet Corn, Free Range Eggs and Potato's were all available for the public to purchase.

Farmerot Danny (farmer in Macedonian slang)  was up bright and early, harvesting the produce.With the signs out on the road, all that was left to do was fling the gates open and hope they would come.

Zach and Tate were so excited with the farm stall, they were sitting on the front porch eagerly awaiting the arrival of our first customer.

We were anticipating that if customers were to come, it would be in the afternoon, after they've spent the day in Daylesford.  However to our surprise, the cries of 'customers are coming' from our little shop keepers had us in a frenzy, only 30mins had lapsed from when the signs went out!

A couple from Melbourne were heading to Maryborough and decided to pop in, our first official customers had arrived. They bought 2kg of Chestnuts, 2 bunches of Carrots (one orange variety and one purple), one bag of Potatoes and a bunch of Sweet Corn!

It was a great start for our Kosharra Springs Farm Gate Stall.

Customers were steady all weekend and the boys had a great time selling our produce, they're little Donald Trumps in the making! 

On Easter Tuesday, Farmerot Danny decided to take the boys to the footy, his beloved Hawks were playing the Cats. The idea was to give Kristy and Emma some girl time, however the girl time had to be put on hold, because Kristy was so busy. She could not keep up, as soon as she saw one customer off, another customer would arrive, this theme continued for the entire afternoon, her only saving grace was the sun going down!

Well the rush ended and the weekend was a success.

Apart from the Hawks losing, the weekend pretty much went to plan, loads of customers trekked up our driveway and purchased our produce.

Hopefully we have many more successful weekends, and maybe, just maybe, the Farmerot can become a Farmer one day! 

Stall to Store perhaps? Watch this space!!!!
