That’s not the case everywhere, sucks to live In a sucky place, don’t project your issues on the rest of world. The farmers markets in Canada are farmer selling their produce, it’s cheaper than big box stores, and they take all the profit themselves other than rent for a stall.

How do they work in your country?

There are proper farmers markets in Cali and some other locales where it is price competitive vis-a-vis grocery in season ... but they are not wide spread and it is very much an exception to the rule on quality produce access year around.

How do Canadian markets operate in the winter?

Indoors?

Lots of vertical farming as well.
