We got roadside stands, farmers market downtown on weekends, honor system you pick and long standing egg sales, chicken or duck. We still got fields under cultivation in town. When they're harvested the locals pick what's left before the wildlife get to it. Sweet potatoes, squash, cucumbers. After the cobs have dried after the corn is shelled, some will collect enough to see them through the year for cooking chickens on the grill. I trade blackberries for cobbler.

I did it for 25 years after I retired. I had about 3 acres of vegetables and 250 peach trees. I sometimes had a helper, but did most of the work myself. My wife did most of the selling.

Very common in this part of Tennessee. It's also illegal to sell wild game.

Not as common as it once was, some folks had a lot with a plywood building on a concrete slab that opened seasonally. The best BBQ around was run by an old couple along the highway through the 70's. They opened in late spring and closed down around mid fall, three types of sandwiches, fries, and a few kinds of soda-pop. It was the best BBQ around!

The garden produce stands are a piece of history in a way that dates way back . When you produced and canned your food for the year. Most after getting what they needed for the year would sell give away the overage rather than see it go to waste. Ive seen stands out with no money box just take what you need.

The local dairy farm for years sold " cat food" you brought your own bottles filled them and left a donation in the cupboard on the wall. A lot of families in the area bought and used that fresh milk.

The bake sales were always special as all those farm wives and daughters could really cook and bake. This held for the pot lucks too. Baling, helping out at the neighbors always meant at least one meal and some "hints" that Lucy ( the daughter) made this or that.

And it wasnt just zucchini people lock cars and porches against egg planrt also fell into that category, but the cattle and pigs loved both. the steaks they produced were good though.

Off track a little. Mom used to bake and sell her goods at the little corner store a couple blocks from the house. The store displayed her, and some other housewives baking on top of the candy counter beyond reach of small children. I think they had an agreement on who would bake what on certain days.

We still have them up here in Indiana, but I don't see them so much because life makes it hard to get out of the city for anything other than business or long distance travel.... I miss the simplicity of my younger days!

[Good Cheer]

Not seeing an stands yet this year. We have a little bitty garden spot protected from deer and rabbits that covers us up for squash, beans, peppers, tomatoes, eggplant and grapes, some potatoes, melons, cabbage, onions and garlic. May end up swapping some this year for fruit with a neighbor.

Fry bread, yummy stuff! Try it smothered in butter with sugar and cinnamon as a dessert!

North of Pittsburgh, just on the edge of Appalachia, a lot of corn is grown. A local farmer puts out untended wagons with piles of fresh corn, and an honor system collection box. I don't remember ever getting bad corn from one of them; they must fill the wagons every day.

There are also a couple of produce stands that pop up here and there. Prices are not great, but it is usually fresh. We get a lot of Chambersburg peaches in Western PA.
