Just look under the tables and you will see all the Dole pineapple, Oregon citrus and various big farm boxes labeled with the imported produce they are selling on top of the tables as locally grown.
Large heirloom tomatoes for instance cannot be grown locally in our climate between May and September. If you see those, they are definitely not locally grown.
