Tim Bergfeld 55 #1 Posted July 27, 2014 I have seen bean prices from 35 to 45 dollars a bushel is that crazy high or is it just me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwl 75 #2 Posted July 28, 2014 I was over in western N, this weekend and they were asking $28 for beans. I thought, what a yr not to grow any at home. I didn't buy any, but there seemed to be no shortage of produce over there. I guess ill have to rethink giving away all the stuff from my test garden.

rmaynard 15,409 #3 Posted July 28, 2014 You think that's high, try buying a bushel of steamed crabs here in Maryland. Just priced a bushel of mediums at $250.00. Don't even want to know what larges cost. Wasn't that long ago you could get the same thing for $50.00. It's a shame you can't grow them in a garden. Local strawberries went from $2.50 a box to $3.50 this year, and corn from $2.50/doz to $4.50. Haven't priced beans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,010 #9 Posted July 28, 2014 The local authorities keep bugging my wife about the farm animal ordinance. She keeps telling them, my name is on the mortgage so I have to stay! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geno 1,929 #12 Posted July 29, 2014 Today most municipalities have ordinances that prevent farm animals within city limits. And they call this a free country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 90 #13 Posted July 29, 2014 Today most municipalities have ordinances that prevent farm animals within city limits. This is one thing Cleveland is doing right. We can have chickens and ducks in the city with permits. However you may have one hoof stock animal if you have an acre and one additional animal for every 1/2 acre over the initial 1 acre. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
