So we have a walmart across the street from us, but walmart's meat and produce sucks. :\ I got some dry goods there from companies I trust but for meat and produce I have to go up the street twenty-thirty minutes just to get a decent selection >_< Now that we have some place to store food we only go out when we run out of produce, which looks like about once a week or so.

So my mother's recently started looking at farmer's markets and we've been getting our produce increasingly from them.
I just got back like twenty minutes ago from buying some small bags of apples, peaches, blackberries, jalapenos and other stuff. Happy happy.

When I have money.

That is really awesome. I am very hesitant of farmer's markets, unfortunately, and I don't know how necessary it is that I am. I don't know what requirements people go through to display their produce, or if their claims are regulated at all (a lot of people think they know what "organic" is, or they think their seeds are GMO free...but a lot of people don't do due diligence in assuring these things). I learned that people on Etsy, who sell "organic" baked goods or "organic" skin care products rarely even understand what proper Organics entails...and you quickly find quite a few people use soil that had pesticides sprayed on it the year before, or that their products are cross contaminated with conventional food/ingredients. It is very tricky and I haven't taken the time to navigate what it means for a farmer's market yet.
