[quote=Anonymous]We are part of a half year CSA through a local farm (Lost Corner Farm) that ends up being a better deal than the store, but that’s comparing it to grocery store organic prices. I sometimes buy eggs from our local farm stand (we are in Leesburg, so have access to some good ones). Prices are comparable to the organic/free range eggs at the store. Locks milk is way more expensive and we go through a lot, so I’ve stopped buying the local stuff. Can’t best local freshness and quality, but we just can’t afford it. I find that the farm / farmers’ market prices cannot beat grocery prices if you’re looking at conventional vs. organic. [/quote]
