If you’re selling to the stores, you generally pack your produce and truck it to a central depot where they manage the shipping to the stores. If you’re selling it at a market, you have to pack your truck, rent the booth, unpack the truck for display, sit there all day(or hire someone to sit there all day), then pack everything up and drive home. It’s way more work and time to do a market.
Not to mention, some items are too perishable for shipping and/or they’re specialty items with limited supply, so no regional or national demand exists in the first place.
