rightwriter, it only takes a google to find a farmers market or green market near you. Most farmers markets take food stamps and provide food stamp bonuses. You picks are just that. They are farms where you pick your produce. These are boons to folks who can (not rocket science) or preserve food but don’t have room to grow their own. Prices are usually lower at you picks. Around here you can do you picks for beans (fresh green, favas, fresh chickpeas fresh English pea, fresh edamame, tomatoes,peppers, kirbys, stone and seeded fruits, different melons, greens and assorted berries. Where I live our farmers market is open year round two days a week and three from April to Nov. In the winter we have hard squash (great for dehydrating), winter greens, a variety of tubers (yacon etc), beets, winter greens etc.
