Farmers Markets/Fruit & Veg Stands
Obviously we like our FMs. Here's a link to a list of the larger FMs in the states. Not a complete listing but handy if you need a restock. http://fruitstands.com/

When I lived closer to town, I used to visit Findlay Market in downtown Cincinnati on weekends. Fruits and veggies were outside and meat/seafood counters were on the inside. Unlike grocery stores, the fruits and veggies were so fresh that they'd slap your face. And the refrigerated vendors inside had a selection the was unbelievable. One stall just sold sausages, but he must have had 20 varieties. Another sold dairy products. They always had a huge block of butter. If you wanted a pound, they could cut a pound off of that big block that was within a couple of ounces. And eggs gathered from free range chickens. They were fresher than the grocery store variety that come from caged chickens, and no more expensive.
Seems like I always bought way more than I could eat, but I ate it anyway. :)
Here's a link if you're in the area. Findlay Market has been there for 150 years.
