Buying fresh produce at a local farmers market is a close second to growing your own.
It can be cheaper than the grocery store because farmers don’t have the overhead. And home gardeners can taste new or unusual varieties they might want to try in their veggie plots.
This Web site lists all the area farmers markets. You can narrow down the search by county or the day, and view market locations on a map. Check it: http://dnr.metrokc.gov/wlr/farms/farmers_markets.htm
