Don't have Urban Gardens here yet. Go to the supposed "family farm markets" & they're selling the same produce as the stores, in the same boxes.
Hahahahahahaha!!!
Just added issues as I see them all over the place.
In reality I grab stuff where ever I see it in decent shape & cheapest. Have talked to a few store produce managers about quality. Things are tough but when you see a Napa Cabbage that has obviously been trimmed 3-4-5 times? We're going to have a chat about why anyone thinks I'm going to pay top dollar for it.
I'm not even a "spud" about it. Just can I get 1/3rd off?
Figure that's fair. They gotta make some money too. You'd be pleasantly surprised how often the Mgr's say yes! The cabbage to be trimmed that many times has already been in the store for about a month. It already was traveling a week or more to get there.
I have to keep it edible for 2 weeks. (it will last if you slap it in a 2 gallon zippy bag with a paper towel!)
Have been scared to go down to the cities produce district cause I'm not ready to find out everything showing up is crappy quality from the suppliers.
