Crates of cabbages, squash, and early greens fill the front of this stall, and the customers leaning in to inspect them are the real focus of the scene. Farm markets like this one were a common way for families to buy fresh food directly from growers in the decades before supermarkets dominated American grocery shopping. Scenes such as this show how buyers judged produce by eye and touch, and how close the exchange between grower and shopper once was.
