> Farmer's Markets... (that's a thing for affluent cities) There are farmers markets and then there are "farmers" markets. The original having existed at most major transportation hubs and required for farmers to get their food to market. And, in the case that rural areas where farmed goods are the top product, (the SouthEast, Midwest, California) authentic farmer's markets exist (though they might also be the local flea market) > Dollar stores are driving a lot of small grocery stores !Cough! Dollar General expansion. Luckily, a restaurateur in a small town that I visit has started increases his fresh ingredient orders from local farms and selling them.
