    My local farmers market is only open seasonally and consists of about 1/3 of their booths selling banking services or squishmallows, 1/3 of the booths selling (delicious, but not very storable) ethnic foods, a bread stand, a honey stand that also sells mail order animals by the quarter (butchered, I think), and 3 booths selling scraggly renditions of whatever they’re currently harvesting.

    I wish I lived in the same sorts of community conditions where you live, or had the connections to local food producers that you do, but the reality is that I takes whats I can get.
    And what I can get is from mega corps that care more about profits than starving a few people.
