I'm literally surrounded by farms and the store is cheaper. Unless it's upick. When you pick it yourself it's crazy cheap

I'm curious, is your farmer's market like a grocery store or more like a bunch of kiosks in a central location once a week?

It's a bunch of stands from local farmers and small businesses. They take up two streets in downtown every Saturday morning

That's unfortunate. That's more like a flea market being sold as a farmers market. An actual farmers market is just a grocery store with local products.

Even with upick, it's more expensive. The cost per pint of blueberries or strawberries we pick on the local farm is way more expensive than the grocery store. I guess they're charging us for the experience.

Same thing for apples. $25 for a peck. We went to the store after and the same size bag was 99 cents.

You're getting apples for 10 cents a pound at a grocery store?! Nah there can't be right
