This is gonna sound kinda bougie of me but local stuff even just tastes better than mass-produced stuff. I started getting a weekly farm box from one down the road, and my god, I have never tasted a carrot so carroty in my entire life.
The commercial seed GMO game is plants that won't make viable seeds so farmers need to keep buying from suppliers. And then the plants are chosen and bred for transportation and appearances, not flavor or nutrition.
The local farms and heirloom varieties are legitimately better.
And the ones that do yield viable seed will get you sued for violating your limited license to use their patented plants if you plant them.
