[quote=Anonymous]Farmer's market fruit will stay fresh slightly longer (because it's more freshly picked/coming to you) but may have fewer pesticides/preservatives so may be less shelf-stable. However, it will only be local, seasonal fruit, so you won't be able to get strawberries, blueberries, and apples every week. Right now, you'll probably be able to get peaches, blackberries, and maybe blueberries and white peaches, depending on the farmer. A pick your own farm like Butler is more of an ~experience~ for the kids and will be expensive. Go to whatever no-frills farmstand is closest/most convenient to you for the cheapest prices. Try several vendors until you find the one(s) with the freshest produce or the types of fruit you like best.[/quote]
