73: Direct Marketing for Produce Growers

Two farmers on the SFA team share what they've learned over several years of operating CSAs and selling at farmers' markets.

Dan Zimmerli of Cedar Crate Farm (Waldorf) and Lauren Barry of Dancing Gnome Farm (Wabasha) talk about how they've grown their businesses, the tech that helps them day-to-day, and how they design their farm stands at the market to boost sales and build relationships with customers.
