produce stands

Roadside vegetable booths

Produce stands are small retail structures where fruits, vegetables, and other farm products are sold directly to consumers.

They range from roadside tables to permanent wooden shelters, typically operated by local farmers or vendors.

The appeal lies in freshness and the perception of buying closer to the source: We stopped at a produce stand for tomatoes on the way home.
