Cheaper At The Farmers Market?
As the sun makes an attempt to peek through after a blessed day of rain in Boulder, here's some food for thought (ouch) from The Atlantic about why you might want to get to the Farmers' Market that starts today at four. It might even be cheaper than shopping the grocery stores. I'll have to pay closer attention to the price comparisons, since that hasn't been my general sense. And it can also be hard to compare prices in an environment favoring bags and bunches, rather that weights and measures. But it's nice to think that farmers' markets are in the running or even beating grocery stores on prices, and our Boulder Farmers' Market is simply the best for freshness of produce and local support. Darn, if we can't be elitist shopping at the Farmers' Market, where's a Boulderite to turn next?
