It's a shame more people don't shop at farmer's markets. The produce is always top notch and they regularly have cheaper priced/better quality product then any of the box stores.

We have a couple places around Louisville that do co-ops where you can get bushels of seasonal produce every week for a monthly rate. If I wasn't cooking for just myself regularly I'd love to do it.

What's wrong with doing both?

I go to our farmers market in Fayetteville often. I go to Ozarks Natural Foods, a local company that will more than likely be pushed out the door by the new Whole Foods coming in.

Yeah, I spend a lot less money at the farmer's market actually. Good meat and seafood. Large selection of vegetables and fruits. Some even have a place where you can grab some lunch and it is usually really tasty.

It is a little out of the way for me, so I only go on the weekends and if I need any groceries during the week I go to Trader Joes.

I agree. Fayetteville supports a great Farmer's Market, three times a week on the town square and Sundays at the Botanical Garden.
