Reply to comment by SmartSherbet in Maker to Main to close Main St. location, move to Canal District by MassInsider

I’d suggest going to a farm in the area, cutting out the middle man that has to pay rent and make profit saves a ton of money. If u dm I can point you in the right direction

Oh yeah, I do that regularly. And I'd like to patronize Maker to Main more, too. But their prices are just really tough to pay. The food co-ops in Western Mass (and Brattleboro, VT) sell the same items from many of the same farms for a whole lot less.

I’d agree 6 dollars for a single carrot is too much. Rather pay the farmer 6 for the carrot, some random greens and some barley or something. they would prob make more that way as well.
