the farmers market

1.) How is the farmers market different from the normal grocery store?
Well the size is different it is more personal and you can see they really took care of what there selling to you they didn’t just buy it. Also the prices Zack bought a huge container of apple cider that would have been expensive in a normal store were cheaper. Also the grocery store has a whole idea of organic food so they separate where it is special and more expensive. In the farmers market they had mostly the organic stuff. Some still had signs organic but it was not special because every one else had one too. So it is claimer.
2.) Going to the gory store a little while ago no one could of spent any time on the farm. They are all people show live here and what could they farm and sell. The only things the people do there is buy the food from factories and put it on the selves. In the farmers market I mean it is in the name they are all problem the people who grew it or have some connection to its growth.
3.) I notice that it is not wet in the farmers market. In the grocery stores there fruits and vegetables are always wet spraying them constantly to make that due like thing to it. Also the grocery stores control the lighting so it makes the fruits look bright and now shinny. It almost looks like plastic fruits and vegetables. In the farmers market since they cant control the lighting and do not wet the fruit all the time so things look allot earthier.
