I would add had a species appropriate diet.

What factors do you use to evaluate whether meat is ethical?

I live in a 60+ year old rural home. The septic and greywater systems both drain into the roadside ditch. This seems to be a common occurrence in this county. We get bad smells when the wind is wrong and I think that tells me the situation should be improved.
I would estimate the ditch falls around 5 feet over the next 300 feet. I'm looking for some reasonable suggestions. Thanks

Disclaimer: I have never operated a farm stand.

However, I do a lot of reading of marketing materials and I would suggest a couple ideas.

Place a mirror where everyone will see themselves. Research I have read shows this will improve your results.
Place signs that thank your customers for their honesty and ask them to refer their friends. People like to be thanked and like to help.
Give your customers permission to write an IOU. Trust goes a long way.

I'd like to read from experienced farm stand marketers, what proven ideas, practices and techniques can you share?

If you haven't listened to the podcast on Ben Law Roundwood Timber Framing give a listen http://www.richsoil.com/permaculture/381-podcast-058-ben-law-roundwood-timber-framing/

Acoustical evidence leads me to believe Paul, Krista and Caleb were podcasting from a hot-tub and there was talk about round wood and round a smooth for the ladies.

Paul was having too much fun! Definitely qualifies as meaningless drivel!
