Store Director Dennis Chrisman at Dorothy Lane Market encourages shoppers to ask about the origin of their fruits and vegetables.
“Unfortunately, a lot of customers are afraid to ask anything. They just assume things are bad and they’re not. If you’re looking at where you’re sourcing your fruits and vegetables from, which is available to every consumer, you should be able to make educated decisions on your own,” Chrisman said.
