There's some, but the spots are usually all filled by people
who have the patience to vulch for a spot.

I suppose I could get on the bus at work, spend the half-hour riding
the bus
5 miles to the farmer's market, shop, take the half-hour bus ride back
to
the office, load everything in the car, and drive the 5 miles to my
house.
Of course, the market is only open mornings on Wednesday (summers),
and all day on Saturdays (year round), so taking the bus from work is
a
non-starter.
This is Michigan, for Christ's sake. We drive here. I'll just drive
10 minutes
to the grocery store, buy whatever looks good (and they often have
Michigan
produce), and drive the 10 minutes home. The grocery store is open
7 days a week, winter and summer.
