What can you grow and sell?

We have a house with a very large plot of land. I love gardening, have time, and would like to make better use of the huge space. My question: what could I grow and resell at least at a cost-covering price? Plants or vegetables? Is this even allowed as a private individual, and if so, where can I sell home-grown produce?

So there are only a few requirements that you have to meet before you can sell vegetables, fruits, etc., which also includes a trade license (except you sell on your own tomb), but taxes have to be paid only when the revenue exceeds 410 euros per year.
It is not a problem for the individual needs or, for example, for the abandonment of neighbors or for the family, but the question is also whether the yield is calculated at all and it is worth selling them at all.
For private use it is not necessarily worth it, but if you love it anyway you can use it for your own use.

If you want to sell vegetables from the garden, it is a direct marketing. If you sell the vegetables on your own property, you do not need permission. However, if you want to sell your vegetables in your own farm shop and also buy other products for resale, you must register a business. Furthermore, during operation of a farm shop you have to keep the loading opening times. If you sell your own vegetables, you do not need to specify a minimum durability date. However, the vegetables must be clean and comply with the applicable hygiene requirements. Clean means that the vegetables are free from adhering earth, but not washed.Make You often sell vegetables, you should ask the relevant trade office whether it is a commercial activity and whether you need a commercial license. You don’t have to pay taxes as long as your revenue from the sale of vegetables does not exceed EUR 410 per year. You don’t need a cash register system and no accounting software.

Tip: Pay attention to yourself and your vegetables by switching a display in a free time or at classifieds. This allows interested parties from your region to buy the vegetables.

Since the manual work requirement for vegetable cultivation in the garden per harvesting unit is very high, it is not worth it.

Consider how much work you put in 1 m2 in relation to yield. And then you didn’t sell the vegetables.

The degree of self-sufficiency in Germany in vegetables is about 38%. That’s very little. Why?

The only thing I could imagine at good locations is a strawberry field for picking.

You save the labor-intensive harvest and part of the risk that you will not get harvested berries sold before they spoil.

Or blueberries.

What you can’t market can you eat yourself or make the winter durable.

You may get a stand on the weekly market. The Traeger can be called you the local administration and they can call you their conditions.

I don’t know if you need a commercial license for these agricultural products.

Please inform me about your assets and I hope I can answer your questions

You could make an attempt to operate as much as possible without much effort :

Syntropical agroforst where one imitates the rainforest, more photosynthesis per area?

According to an agricultural expert an ingenour, two wheat fields with 50 percent light-intensive have more yield than a wheat field with 100 percent light-intensive.

Is this because more green CO2 increases, which the plants also need for photosynthesis?

It has an cultivation where one imitates the rainforest, only with crops, more green per area, where the sun shines on it, because the sun spreads out, it is not under a tree trunk dark, there comes also light.

The rainforest has large trees under whose treetops are smaller under whose treetops are even smaller ….

Maybe that’s what’s going on in Germany, do a try.

According to farmers, you can drive between the trees with light machines and you can shake the trees with machines and the e.g. Drop nuts into a net .

Of course, you cannot grow cocoa bean in Germany… but trees that grow in Germany .

How high is the degree of self-sufficiency at the moment?

What I have seen for the sale of products were private providers on the weekly market – it is necessary to talk to the market operator or on the flea market.

What I could sell would be strawberries, have a lot more than I can consume and give away, and look for a solution.

I’d plant salad, vegetables. Create a small stand outside the door. But you have to register for a trade.

Or you’re trying to get rid of vegetable dealers. But they usually have their sources.

The best is organic vegetables.

Walnuts. Apart from the foliage, they don’t do any work. Even harvesting is done by themselves, you just have to pick up.

I don’t know if this works when you build food, the legal conditions for food are relatively demanding. If I had time and a bit of capital, I would specialize in exotic woods and fruit trees, there are quite interesting developments, for example in the Indian figs or pomegranates
