Farmers' Markets and Produce Stands

Farmers' markets are locations where many farmers gather to directly sell their goods to the public. The produce is generally grown locally and sold seasonally. Produce stands are similar, but on a smaller scale. Many produce stands offer the goods from just one farm or family of farms.

Are all fruits and vegetables at a Farmers Market organic?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, not really. Most organic farmers like to tell that they are so they can sell to people who want only organic. Ask the farmer if he is or not. He'll tell you. Organic means no chemicals, pesticides or fertilizers, at a farmers market you will find wholesome fresh picked straight from the vine vegetables, but to certify that they have never come into contact with any chemicals of any kind is a different matter altogether, that is why organic ( certified ) cost so much. Trust me you will be very happy with the food you get at the farmers market, and it will be a lot better than anything you can get at a chain store.

What are the necessary characteristics of a good organic farmer?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Attention to detail, comfortability with numbers, patience with paper work and understanding of economics, nature and weather are necessary characteristics of a good organic farmer. Much of the existing support system is geared towards commercial, large-scale farming. Organic farmers therefore need to pay attention to the fine print that differentiates failure and success: balancing budgets, calculating controls, completing start-up and yearly paper works, identifying resource drains and selecting environmentally friendliest, most effective biological, cultural and mechanical treatment options.
