Hold A "Thank You For Your Business" Day

With just a few weeks left in the season for many farm markets and stands it's a good time to hold a day to thank your customers for their business.

Everyone likes to feel appreciated and recognizing your customers for their loyalty will come back ten-fold next year.  Provide some simple refreshments like cider and donuts and offer a discount on purchases or a free gift with purchase.

While you have your customers one last time for the year you should also do some marketing for next year.  Have a flyer or handout with your opening date for 2015 as well as an approximated schedule of when certain fruits and vegetables will be available at your market or stand.  Of course, you can also add a coupon for next year to the flyer; this is a great way to get your customers to save it over the winter.
