My farms been on the honor system for 15 years. Now I'm 100% retail. Best move I ever made. 99% of my people are honorable... Robert.

love this concept. Just like a honest store.

I live in Jasper, Ontario. There's a couple of honour stands near me.

My son In law operates a truk farm here in central Texas and has an on your honor box, works awesome, but you still have destructive thieves, but they're usually the same ones that cut his hydros ammonia fertilizer lines to drain them to make meth.

Lancaster County, PA has had honor system farm stands as a matter of course for decades and decades. Veggies, eggs, fresh flowers, raw milk, etc., are sold in this fashion. A few years ago, a farmer had a problem with repeated theft, installed a video camera, caught images of the "person" and the story made the local news along with the thief's image. Within days the public had identified the creep (not from here). Our local culture enforces the convenience and community of honesty and small farm support. Come visit!

I'd have a camera up to catch the lic. plate or a face or whatever. Then make them work off the damage, otherwise post it on youtube to shame them.

Too bad this can only be implementented in rural areas, and very 'honorable' ones at that. In kost places you would at least need to put up a security cam to scare off some theft attempts. Even here it cwlan help, although I guess it would go against their trusting vibe.

If we could rout out these non-humans that walk among us, this is how it would be everywhere.
