I haven't been on the forum in quite some time! I ended up getting into a summer market in July and have really enjoyed it. It's the only market I did this year. Financially, I have not yet covered my initial supply investment. I bought a lot of essential and fragrance oils and other things.
I make mostly cold process soap, but also body butters, scrubs, etc.
I am wholesaling to a local health food co-op. They finally got my products on the shelf a week ago.
I am looking forward to being more organized next year and selling at at least 3 or so farmer's markets instead of one.
How long did it take you to recover your initial investment? I spent over $4000 for my start up costs. I've made around $2500 since starting the farmer's market in July. I've spent a lot of time getting my product line down since last winter, so I feel like the hardest part is over.
Thanks for reading!
