I haven't bought eggs in over a year and her's are the best tasting i've had. My brother also plants a 3 acre property across the street (no pesticide use) from my parents and grows cucumbers, tomato, squash, peppers, and sweet corn. My wife and I take as much fresh produce was we can and we make home made baby food for our 7 month with it (saves money and we know whats in it). While this isn't available for everyone I take advantage of it as much as possible. There is a noticeable different in the quality. It becomes difficult in winter months but she does canning to preserve as much as she can.
Here is some interesting watching its gets a little doom and gloom but it makes some pretty compelling points.

You are lucky.. I think raw milk is legal to buy up in CT too... sounds like you are well informed. If more people are educated about what
real food is, the demand will increase at those farmers markets.
The old saying, an apple a day keeps the Dr. away is completely true. The key is to eat the
whole apple, most importantly the seeds. They are very high in b17. b17 is a natural form of cyanide.. don't let that scare you, it's nature's anti-cancer. It's a ph balancer and blood cleanser. But don't just eat the apple seeds alone, eat the whole apple with them.
Here's a list of other foods high in b17
