I love seeing these signs on the side of the road. There is no better way to support small farms than to actually go to the farm and buy directly from the farmer.
Farmers markets are great because they are a one stop shop for customers. However, there is a lot of work on the farmer's end to get to the farmers market. Picking, packing up, driving, setting up, staying at the market for many hours etc. All of the time at the farmers market takes away from valuable time at the farm. Plus farmers markets are typically only a few days a week.
Keep an eye out for signs like these! Support farmers markets but don’t hesitate to go directly to the farm to buy your produce either.
