What happened to all the lovely fresh produce from the markets? Is it possible to order from local huertas in order to support small businesses? The supermarkets currently have a monopoly and prices are going up. I'd be grateful if anyone has a contact no.

I can in part understand your point of view, but I'd point out that market traders often hawk their products around various markets, and their offerings often become tired.

The supermarkets, in contrast, have a high turnover, and their fruit and veg are often much fresher than you will find on the markets.

The greengrocer near us is still working, his vans go out full each morning to stock up shops, look up super frutti to find one near you.
