A significant number of the "farmers" at farmer's markets arent. Some even buy thier stock from costco and the like. A commercially productive farmer does not have the time to spend a day selling a few apples in the city center. The safer bet is to drive out to roadside stands at the actual farms, then of course then you can only buy the one or two products currently being harvested at that paticular farm. The upside is that, as you are driving rather than walking, you can load up on 50+lbs of corn for friends and family without worry.
- torstenvl 2y agoWhen I load up on 50+lbs of corn, it isn't for my friends and family to eat. At least not directly.
- OptionOfT 2y agoIn California certified farmers markets are not allowed to re-sell produce. Not sure if it's enforced. And it's hard to look up non-existing laws in other states. When I don't find something I assume I'm not searching correctly, but in this case there might just not be a law to find.
