And you haven't mentioned utility costs or your own time.
Do you actually make a profit from your sales?
I think the customers for your products will understand since they are looking for premium products.

Good luck.

I do make a profit. What doesn't go back into the company goes into savings. We were able to take a nice 10 day vacation last year with my sister and brother-in-law.

People will certainly understand. Whether they can afford the prices is another story.

increase later.

Thanks for your suggestion. Dealing with coins at a farmers market can get crazy. I've had my helpers do it in the past . It just gives me a headache. I'm thinking maybe a tip jar, though I got a lot of negative feedback from other vendors.

I was in business for 50 years one lesson is not to guess how much someone has or is willing to spend .

Good ain't cheap cheap ain't good never has been never will be.

I absolutely understand why a small company like yourself would need to raise prices to cover this tariff trash. You have my support! My question is to all companies affected by rising costs. When the tariff's are removed, will prices come down? That is what I would like the media to focus on.

But then again, this is the same "news" media that ignored the bird flu, when reporting on the price of eggs during a presidential election, and blamed Joe Biden.
