Here in Australia the concept of a periodic fresh food and produce market is really taking off particularly in the rural townships. 
Called by a variety of names 'Farmers market','Growers market' 'Produce market' they all appear to meet a growing community need.
People are tired of buying 'old, tired, non local produce at the local supermarket.
Great opportunity for local dairy farmers to diversify and add value to their farms- but will they grow produce ? no way.
