Friendly workers called cashiers help us pay for our food so we can take it home to cook yummy meals. Some communities also have outdoor markets where farmers bring fruits and vegetables they grew on their farms. You can see colorful apples, orange carrots, and green lettuce piled high on tables.
- It is so much fun to walk around the market with your family and pick out your favorite snacks.
- The average grocery store has over 30,000 different items on its shelves.
- Farmers markets let you buy food directly from the people who grew it!
