It's horrible. The best produce is at 1) farmers markets  2) mom's 3) whole foods. Wegmans has good cheese and great fish, at least in the suburbs.  I can always find fresh sockeye salmon there. [/quote]

I heard most farmers markets use the same suppliers as supermarkets.
Do you think it is true?[/quote]
If you see produce that’s not locally in season where do you think that comes from?[/quote]

From out of state but from small family cooperative farms.
If they have same products like supermarkets from big corporate farms and distributing it at farmers market it is deceptive business practice.[/quote]

You want to look for a "producers-only" farmers market. These have a requirement that the vendor grows or produces what they sell. [/quote]

We go to the Bethesda market on Sundays (Central Farm Markets). It seems to be products grown on those farms (many in PA and MD). There are some greenhouse grown products (eg salad mix in winter) but otherwise follows the seasons. That means it can be pretty sparse in the winter.

Some vendors, like ProFish, are obviously not catching lobsters locally. [/quote]
