Reflections on the Farmer's Market


Reflections on the Farmer's Market

Phoebe has asked us to reflect upon our experience in the Farmer's Market. I have been to a Farmer's Market before, so I think that qualitatively, the most significant thing about this experience was that contextual speech that began the experience. Knowing that the fruits and vegetables that were offered were certified was important to the experience. Understanding that California's high standards for agriculture are a vulnerability to the local industry is important. We choose how we spend our fortune, and it is clear that cheapest, easiest, fastest, most convenient, are simplistic ideals. One really does get what you pay for.
