You know, some of them were just reselling grocery store stuff as their own.

    I have a farm market near me. It's basically a small grocery store. They stock most everything you'd want at least in small quantities. The source as much as they can locally, but a lot of it is still from wholesalers. When something is local and in season, they note it's local and price it cheap AF, They want to get it out of there before it rots.

    If you pay attention to the growing season, you can make out pretty damn well. I bought a crate of Jalapenos there last year for $25. I picked some, added some to salads, made and froze a bunch of poppers and still ended up trashing the last couple inches of the box. Still saved a ton.

    My towns farmers market has horribly high prices and realistically is mostly crafts and other products. It’s just not worth it, except maybe the Indian food buffet and the meadery!

    However a fairly short drive away are actual farms with farm stands that have much better products for a much more reasonable price (when in season). One of them also does pies and while expensive, are so amazing it’s well worth it

    I went to the co-op the other day, and they don't even stock mostly local any more.
