Way to go, Jack! Great idea! As the market expands with different growers, there will likely be better variety, better prices, on produce much fresher than that available in the local stores. Farmer’s Markets are a great addition to any community.

I was told this is not organic produce, it’s just locally grown instead of “not locally” as sold in the supermarkets.

Prices

This type of Market is supposed to have cheaper prices than what you would otherwise pay.

While some items had good prices, many consumers complained that many items were priced far higher.

Is there really that much “locally” grown produce in NJ??? Come to LA to see a real farmers market… PS. that newscaster had great passion in his reporting. NY is awesome…
