Actually, I do know farmer's market pricing - I've shopped at a variety of them weekly for about 15 yers now, and buy mainly organic. Ferry Building market hands down is the most expensive produce I've ever seen, including that in local specialty/upscale groceries. Perhaps it is all in perspective: mine is that apples, same variety and same quality, should not cost in San Francisco over twice what they cost in Mountain View.
