Not Your Mother's Farmers Market

What if you were a potato farmer or onion farmer and wanted to sell your goods to the public?  What if you owned a cattle farm and wanted to sell your beef?  You'd go to the Astana Farmers Market, where the public would buy your goods in 50 pound increments.  As for the beef, it was freshly butchered.  No need to worry about the flies, they don't weigh them.  And not a candle, earring, or homemade soap to be seen.

They also sold apples, pears, honey and cucumbers.  That was about it.  I didn't buy anything since I didn't want 50 pounds of anything.  But lots of people did.  It was pretty crowded.
