farmer's market

A farmer's market is a designated place where local farmers and producers sell fresh, locally-grown fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy, and other products directly to consumers. It offers an opportunity for shoppers to buy high-quality, seasonal items while supporting nearby agriculture and reducing the distance food travels. These markets often take place outdoors or in communal spaces, fostering community engagement and transparency about food origins. They provide a convenient way to access fresh, wholesome foods and often feature artisanal or specialty products not always found in grocery stores.
