About Us Dear Producers, and Buyers of ethnic and specialty produce, we have developed this Web page to help you make an informed decision regarding producing, buying, and selling specialty and ethnic vegetables. The objectives of this research project “Maryland specialty crops initiative” were to:  Test the potential for growing specialty crops under diverse environments in Maryland. Evaluate their market potential in the state. Provide valuable production and marketing guidelines to producers, retailers, wholesalers, and agricultural professionals. You will find useful research-based information on this Web site. Please do not hesitate to contact us at the Small Farm Institute if you need additional information and/or want to make any suggestions.
