If there were, for no good reason, no farmers markets, then farmers and their consumers would get together and create them!

Because that is where they came from; fulfilling a need.

With the end of the petroleum age facing us in the next decade or two, expect farmers markets to become more and more popular. The growing uncertainty about the quality and healthfulness of industrially-produced food is creating a growing “know your food producer” movement.

The forces arrayed against farmers markets are formidable. Basically, the entire industrial food industry has absolutely no interest in being cut out of consumers’ lives, which is what farmers markets do, by fostering direct-to-consumer relationships with food producers. In fact, they are spending lots of lobbying money to put an end to farmers markets.
