Safe food is food you make yourself not overly processed crap like chicken nuggets (I don't believe i have ever eaten a chicken nugget, they never seemed like food to me).
But foods in their whole, raw form, not already processed and ready to eat. that means buy dried beans, fruits and vegetables, rice, flour, etc., and cook real food.
Also don't be too sure that farmers markets in your area are closed all winter and certainly don't assume local farmers are not producing year round or nearly year round. I know my farm produces food 10 to 12 months a year
http://www.localharvest.org has the best data base of farmers markets and farm and will indicate if they go all winter long.
Your taking a chance with any prepared food like chicken nuggets, pizza, etc. Cook it yourself and at least you know what is going into it. Look for chicken without additives or that say free range and buy your poultry, meat and veggies from a local farm or green market. If your buying from reputable dealers/stands/stores, and the food says organic, it should contain no preservative or chemicals and usually means the animals are treated humanely

Nowhere! The only safe food is what you grow and raise yourself. So I suggest you buy a farm.
