Trying to buy local (lemmy.ca)

Buying local produce is easy in the summer months, but all the kale, broccoli, and cauliflower in local stores now is from the US. Even bins marked USA or Mexico have American produce when you check the tiny labels. Does anyone have recommendations?

You won't get much local fruits in the winter nut Mexico is ok I think. I means it's way better than the US.

There are greenhouse farmers that deliver all year long. In Quebec, we have Lufa farms, I'm sure there's alternatives in the other provinces.
