That is correct. I have 2 goals: 1. To eat at least one thing from the garden every day. 2. To have this year's garden pay for next year's seeds. So, at the moment, I am still taking my first steps to see how well my stuff sells and I don't currently have plans to expand. Today was only the 2nd farmers market that I have had food in and unfortunately it was a holiday weekend. Apparently most people were on their way to vacation somewhere and just wanted watermelon and corn, not my kale and chard. So, I only sold 2 packets of basil. Most folks around here like the "classic" vegetables and I like to grow more unique things. I will keep trying stuff out and see how it goes. I am not growing things specifically for the market, I am growing it for my family to eat and anything extra that I sell is a bonus. If I did it for profit, I would end up hating my hobby that I dearly love.
That's a great point, to not want to come to hate your hobby. Thanks for sharing all that!
