But maybe there is no out of season in Florida? I just know up here in MA the farmers advertise their farm and growing practices (organic etc). Do you trust the vendors at the squares?

Not proud to admit it took me twice at the ‘local farmers market’ at BW to realize that the Publix across the way had much better produce than what the farmers market had to offer. Like an idiot I assumed it was like was my weekend FM is at home (Utah) There’s some nice local stuff there for sure but…..😬 sorry, The produce was trash. Totally ripped off 🙋*♀️🙋*♀️ That’s me!
Publix is where I’ll be buying my ‘local’ produce from now on.
