Vent: my Saturday at the Grant Park farmers market turned into a $60 lesson on timing
I showed up at 11am last Saturday thinking I'd grab peaches and greens quick, but half the stands at the Grant Park farmers market were already packed up or picked clean. I ended up spending $60 on whatever was left, and the peaches were mealy while a guy next to me said he gets there by 8:30 and always scores the good stuff. What time do you all actually roll up to get first pick?
