[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ever notice the farmers markets are selling fruits and vegetables that are not even in season around here or anywhere close by? They usually buy it from wholesalers and what you pay at the farmers market in bethesda is a lot more than what you pay in germantown. Many of the vendors are not farmers at all but just resellers. btw, where is a "local" farmer growing bananas around here or have tomatoes in early April and charge 4x what the grocery store sells the same tomatoes for? [/quote] No never seen it around here.[/quote] Ditto. Bethesda market. Never seen a banana. Everything is in its proper season. Occasionally there are hydroponic tomatoes earlier and later than you might expect but nothing that would cause you to think it’s imported from elsewhere. [/quote] Me again - except citrus. One vendor does sell oranges and grapefruit in winter which obviously are not from around here. [/quote]
