- We sell fertilizer every spring. We go out on the first
- Sunday afternoon in March and take orders for a variety of products.
- We then make up an order for our supplier who gives us a really
- good deal and arrange for the loan of a semi to bring the stuff to town.
- On Friday 12 days later we deliver to the customers. We are
- a very small troop and we can pull in $1500 from even our small town.
-
- The fact that we deliver is our competitive edge. Our prices aren't
- any better than the local nursery store.
