Don't have a clue what could be seen up there in the winter months.
Perhaps there is a degree of resurgence in the popularity of Farmer's
Markets. I'm not really qualified to comment, but if there is a
measurable increase in popularity or sheer number of new markets or new
customers I would guess that is partly attributable (sp) to the rise of
organic production. Having said that I would also submit that many
established markets have experienced declines as less meals are prepared
in the home and frozen, pre-cut, and imported produce has gained
marketshare steadily.
Soulard Market here in lovely Saint Louis has seen a steady decline in
traffic for the last twenty years. The Farmer's Market is most likely
one of the oldest phenomenon in human culture!
Got to go, I hope your friend has a safe trip! ;-} A.
