PLATTEVILLE — The new beginnings were plentiful at this old-school way of commerce. The broccoli plants were three inches high, flats of pansies and impatiens were waiting to bloom, and hundreds of hanging baskets had yet to see a front porch. A food trailer was well stocked with fresh, homemade donuts, breakfast sandwiches of egg and bacon and promises of rhubarb pie later in the season. Even the auctioneer was a rookie. Eugene Hostetler, a farmer from Boscobel, completed auctioneer school last fall in Montana. Friday was his first gig, and it came in the recently finished barn that holds the newly formed Platteville Produce Auction.
