I will let you in on a little secret… as of last weekend, I have a shop on this blog of mine! But before you start jumping up and down and wondering where you have last seen your credit/debit card, I must also confess that it isn’t operational. Yet.
I have opened a (free) account on ecwid.com which I could use to sell products from. My books are and will still be on Amazon, but as Agterplaas Enterprises develops and expands, more and more handmade goods and farm surplus products will become available for sale to fellow South Africans. I have been thinking about it long and hard, and it’s not worth the courier fees to ship anything abroad at this stage. Besides, I have to practise what I preach, and being a locavore is definitely the way to go!
Watch this space, as I shall definitely keep you posted as matters develop further.
