Advertise! Anyhow that's what I do. I have a couple flyers up in local stores (doesn't cost me anything), and also word of mouth around town. I sell around 12-15 dozen per week this way. Occasionally I'll have a glut during the summer, so I run a buy one get one free sale for a couple weeks. And they get the free one whether they want it or not! If that doesn't work I take them to a couple (large) families that are "less fortunate" that really appreciate them. All else fails, I take a couple dozen down to the barn and throw 'em at a big tree nearby, then wait and shoot the coons and possums that come to eat them. That is a rare occasion though. My local feed store buys eggs from customers and then re-sells them for a 50 cent profit. I take eggs to them occasionally and trade against my feed bill, which benefits both of us. You might consider a small add in your local paper, it won't cost much and it might very well help boost your business.
Do you sell on the honor system at your stand, or are you there all the time? I've considered doing something similar at home but just haven't quite figured out how to do it when I work a 40 hour week.

This being so, it surprises me to see how many enthusiasts attending rallies, shows etc, seem to be unaware of the importance of this constant attention. Possibly the modern machine with its 6,000 mile or even once
