My wife and I absolutely love shopping at our local farmer's market on Saturday mornings. It's a great place with great atmosphere.
We buy our meat from a booth run by an Amish (or Mennonite, I've never asked them) family. The price of ground beef and ground pork is pretty close to what we would pay at a chain grocery store, but it really tastes better. We also buy our bacon there. The bacon is a lot more expensive, but in our opinion it is worth every penny. It just tastes so goooooooooood! They also make their own sausages in various flavours, which we cannot resist. Apple and cinnamon pork sausage? Yes please!
So yeah, I also would rather pay extra for locally produced food.
