Claytonia, pictured above, is a very cold-hardy salad green that can continue to be produced throughout winter months without supplemental heating, as with many other types of salad greens and root vegetables. When it blooms in spring, claytonia also becomes a very attractive addition to any salad mix. Vegetable packages are a popular means of supporting local farmers and can offer a convenient means for bundling together products for sale. New approaches to these vegetable package sales can allow customers to exchange unwanted items for ones they prefer, bringing them to the shop where they may purchase additional goods. The salad mix above that includes mesclun greens and chive flowers is just one example of an innovative mixed salad package that can be sold from polyculture production. These heirloom tomatoes are one example of products that can be sold at higher premiums when catering to a local market. 18 / 64 Pagina 17
