Honor System

Honor System, Logan Martin Lake Sales

 

 

Every once in a while you will see a post that burns itself in your memory. If I could remember who posted it, I would link the post. In their area, they found a farmer selling vegetables on the side of the road with an honor system for anyone wishing to purchase while he was not there. When I read the post, I could not imagine anyone having that much trust in the people of their area.

It is very important to me to try to support our local farmers. I stopped at this great little farmers market, and I gathered what I needed, when I was paying for it, I saw that this farmer also had an honor system. The farmer told me he never had a problem with anyone not paying for their vegetables. Now how cool is that!

It goes to show you what good, honest and hard working people that live in St. Clair, Alabama.

It is good to know there are still honest individuals around in my area there is a local family who does this with oranges every year and I always stop to buy them.

Diane, There really are very good, honest people … we tend to let the few bad apples cloud the truth. I would image those inclined to steal … are not stealing vegetables (LOL)

Diane,

In this day and age, trusting people to pay is pretty cool.

I'm so sad to say that here in the metropolitan area of NYC not only would the vegetable be gone but that wooden box would disappear too.

Diane it has been said that there are far more honest people than not.  I believe that.
