A green fact: Farmers markets are sprouting like weeds: Since 1994, the number of farmers markets in the U.S. has increased from 1,755 to 5,274. There was a 13 percent increase between 2008 and 2009 alone.
It’s important to note, however, that farmers markets still represent a relatively small piece of the pie. In 2008, there were approximately 85,200 grocery stores nationwide (this number includes both supermarkets and convenience stores), which means that there are still more than 15 grocery stores for each farmers market in the United States.
And of those farmer’s markets, do you know how many of them are really Producer Only? (That means the people there grow or make what they sell and don’t buy it at the wholesale markets). We know we are at Dunwoody!
