Clayton Farm & Community Market Minute #1
Clayton Farm and Community Market vendors bring to market what they think they can sell. Based on how many of our vendors are selling out each Saturday they are doing a good job with their estimates. For the customer - at least those who arrive early to mid market, this means the freshest possible produce. That term, "the freshest possible produce" is also the answer to why the cost is comparable or somewhat more than the store – the produce is picked either the morning of, or late the evening prior to the market as compared with stores where things are several days or more in shipping. That's also why people love markets; the food items are fresh and nutritious, and grown locally.
