I’ve gone to farmer’s markets and although the stuff is good, some of it is pricey. There are stuff like lettuce and stuff that are cheaper but most of stuff like berries and fruits are more expensive.
But on the bright side, that money (usually) goes right back into your local economy, instead of lining the pockets of some rich asshole from five states away who has a chain of grocery stores.
It does, as long as those farmers are giving back and trickling it down, sort to speak. It isn’t the case for everyone, try not to buy from assholes if you can.
Definitely. 100% would rather buy from a farmer’s market than a big name store. Also, around my area, the big farmer’s markets are located in affluent areas

yeah unfortunately small or independent farmers simply can’t ever compete with factory farms.

It’s more expensive indeed, but I’ve found the quality is much better.

The market in my town delivers to my workplace every week. I order from them first, then supplement everything else from the grocery store.
