First sale

(Pepper climber as shown in the above image. Pepper grows as a bunch of tiny tots. Seen in the right hand side of the image)

After we moved into the farm, we were doing lots of work .. one thing after another. Farm related, house maintenance, government paper work etc. Amidst all those things, we were able to pluck out some pepper and dry it up. My job was to sell it to some merchant.




I hopped from shop to shop, trying to learn the buying price. I had to put an act, as thou I am a seasoned farmer and trying to sell off a load. Had a fear, what if he asks some technicalities about the goods? I know that pepper is used in pongal, beyond that my knowledge is nill. Luckily a shop near the city center bought the stuff with less questioning.




I will have to research more to know about the best price. Less planning to pack it and sell them off.
