We're excited to share this "Idea of the Week", submitted by either the MAiZE staff or one of your fellow siteowners. There never seems to be a shortage of ideas and the truth is that some of the best originate with all of you! So, if you ever have an idea you'd like us to pass along to the group, please just send it our way. Also, please remember that we'll be archiving these ideas on the siteowner web site, so that you can go back and view them whenever you like.
Food Survey Results Are In!

 
Curious about how many of your fellow MAiZE members sell food on their farm? What sells best and what sells worst? We've got the answers to these questions and several more!
 
Thank you to the 38 members of our MAIZE family who took the time to complete last week's food survey. As promised, we are sharing the results with all of you. To view them, CLICK HERE.
 
Preferred Vendor Message: Second Chance to Order Scout Patches!
Quite a few of you have missed the original deadline to order scout patches and since Krelman has received so many late inquiries, they are going to print a second run of patches. Though you'll get them a bit later than the first batch, it's still a great second chance to order patches if you need them.
