Dear Farmers Market Vendors

joseph · August 13, 2013

We have a guy at our market that brings a great crop that nobody else is able to produce in large quantity. The market staff complains about him because he didn't grow them on his farm... He is the foreman at a farm, and the farm gives him vegetables as part of his pay... So the guy plants the vegetables, and weeds them, and picks them, and brings them to market so that the market staff can give him trouble because he doesn't own the farm that they were grown on. Sheesh...

We have one fruit stand here that is as crooked at they come. Their working definition of local is anything that was grown on planet Earth.
