Question: How do the prices of produce at a farmers market compare to prices in the grocery store!?
Are they generally cheaper, more expensive, or similar!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Farmers' market produces are cheaper and fresher!. The produce are picked from the farm and brought straight to the market!. Grocery stores usually have their produce delivered by produce distributors, so it takes longer to get to the store!. also, farmers cut out the middle man by selling their produce directly to the consumer, so they can offer cheaper prices!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you know how to use the net you can find the wholesale prices
the markup is 300%
the farmers market EVEN the road side fruit stand sells to the wholesalers!.!. You think this out
you just MAY get better products But I remember stoping at one as they were closing up so tomorrow all would be day old

The prices are not to much different unless you buy in bulk; however, the taste and shelf life are usually far superior, making the end cost cheaper!.

You should stock up once every other week!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
