Our farmers market is nothing like this.
They even have a garden plot that volunteers work to grow food for the needy.
A simple sign stating not to take the stuff is enough to keep it safe.
To help keep it going people are allowed to make stuff at home and sell it there.
One of the streets that adjoins it is called Farm street and is a wild chicken sanctuary and chickens are protected.
Once a month we have what is called market days where they block off down town so people can sell arts and crafts.
Once a month they have what is called Movies in the park that is free.
Where other small towns have dried up where I live it has flourished.

These big city markets sound like a nightmare.
I have never been to one.
