What struck you about the location you visited? Was it what you expected, or very different?
The Farmers market was alot smaller than I expected, just one row of a few different farmers and that was it.
Which items were cheaper than you expected? Which were more expensive?
Alot of the fruits were cheaper than I expected except for the apples and pears, those were pretty expensive.
Do you think you will start going to a farmers market more often?
To be honest I don't really think i will because the whole experience was a bit of a hassle for me, and it just wasn't that memorable as I expected it to be.
How do these locations fit into our essential questions of “Why Don’t People Live More Sustainably?” and “How Can I Convince them to do So?”
This location fits in very well with living sustainably because going to one of these events and getting locally grown and organic foods helps out the environment alot. As for convincing something to do so, I could just say that everything may be a bit more expensive, but the food is better, and healthier for you, plus you are helping a good cause.
