Also does it make me crazy if I think that regular peaches are better than white peaches?

Is there anything better than a Farmers Market? There is just something so medieval about them. The stalls full of fresh produce, the health conscious
consumers milling about, the insanely high prices of organic food lined up in little baskets, the smell of fresh strawberries almost masking the smell of
hippies and homeless.

You're not crazy - I prefer the regular ones too and the same goes for cherries

FMs are okay ... sort of cult-like, but okay ... I guess. But I HATE the crafts!!! |

I don't like those little flat peaches either. WTF is the appeal with them? It is like they got rid of all the best bits and left you with the part you
usually throw away.
OE ours doesn't have much in the way of crafts. I would say that the Wednesday has maybe 3% crafts at most. It was mostly flower stuff too so that doesn't bother me much. Soaps and bouquets of lavender and herb stuff. The Sunday one even less. The Sunday one has lots of prepared food.

The FM here is awesome. All the sellers are required to raise anything they sell, so stuff tends to be fresh picked. And most all of it is organically grown.

Great FMs around here too, mostly all organic....and SOOOOO cheap. I can spend $15 at the FM ... or go to the grocery store and buy the exact same stuff, and
spend $40.

FMs are so expensive here in Cali that I stopped going there because it was not worth the hassle for me.

Just think about how much MORE expensive it would be without cheap Mexican labor.
