A
CBC investigation exposed how some vendors at the Peterborough
Farmers' Market were misleading consumers by claiming to grow fruits
and vegetables that were actually purchased at a wholesale food
terminal. The reaction from the Peterborough & District
Farmers' Market Association (PDFMA) was to eject the FARMERS who
brought this to their attention and NOT TAKE ANY ACTION regarding
those that pretended to be actual growers of the produce they were
selling.
What
a sad reflection of the state of this 'farmers market' board!
