Again, price is not the only factor. I didn’t say it was cheaper, I said it was BETTER and cheaper. My farmer at the market is Gmach and they are still quite small, but I do believe they are much larger than my crop share at Greenhart. I still go to the market for carrots, potatoes, kale, leeks, and other things that Gmach just does very, very well regardless of the price. The carrots are so good, I plan a few meals around them every week. It’s weird getting excited about carrots, but they are just that good.
There’s nothing wrong with buying from your local farmers market if the food is better. However, if you aren’t happy with the quality from the farm providing delivery, perhaps there are other options in your area? I’m in a small city and there are probably 10-12 nearby farms that provide a CSA box via delivery, and a few more that have stands where your farm share price gives you a certain amount you can spend when you attend
It’s unfortunate but I get better quality at a lower price at the farmer’s market. But my farmer delivers each week’s custom order to my door.
