I want to be transparent with everyone for a moment.
I truly love running this farmstand. Over time, I’ve met some incredible people, and I genuinely mean that. This has never been just about money for me. It’s always been about creating something real—connecting with people, offering homemade goods, and sharing ingredients that feel more personal than what you find in a grocery store.
That’s why this is so hard to say.
In just the last 3 weekends, I’ve had 8 separate thefts. Some people will pay for a few items and then take extra without paying, and others have simply taken things and walked away. Last weekend alone, one person walked off with one of everything that was out.
Last year, I did have a few issues, but it was maybe 5 total spread out over the entire year—not like this.
I don’t want to lose the farmstand. I really don’t. But right now, it feels like my hands are tied. The efforts I’ve put in to prevent this just aren’t stopping it, and it’s becoming really discouraging.
To those of you who continue to support honestly and respectfully—please know how much it means to me. You are the reason I’ve kept going this long. ❤️
I’m taking a little time to figure out what comes next, and I truly hope I can find a way to keep this going.
Thank you for understanding.
