Been picking creeping thyme, lavender, lemon balm, lemon verbena and a LOT of spinach. I rinsed and bound and bagged everything except for bundling the lavender.

What should I ask for prices? Never did this before.

The lavender bundles are fresh and bound like little posies. The rest of the herbs fill a sandwich size baggie.

Any advise would be dearly appreciated!!

Thanks gals!

I never did this, but I wish you the best of luck.

You need to figure you price on how much is in there, how much it cost to plant, the amount of labor you put in (weeding, watering, picking, cleaning), how much the bags cost, how much your farmers market charges you for a booth and how much it costs you to drive there. Dont UNDERSELL your self.
