    I compare the prices to here in Sweden, potatoes fir instsmce, ate about, 1,60 here. Carrots, 2 euro. Tomatoes vary but we get them imported from like the Netherlanfs. Did find tomatoes at about 2 euro a kilo this eeek at Lidl but thats rare, over the yrar they have been nearly 5 euros a kilo. Fresh fish forget it. Watermelon varies too over summer, we ger them from Spain sometimes Greece but the kilo price could be 4- 5 euros, mening a big heavy melon will be very expensive. Onions are about 1, 60 . Inflation has caused suchva rise in everything

I've been living in Crete for more than 6 years now, between Heraklion and Chersonissos and yeah, the quality of the products here in Greece is excellent. It can be the vegetables, the fruits, the meat, the fish, the bread, the milk etc...everything is, in my view, top-quality!...Καλό βράδυ και καλή συνέχεια! Χαιρετίσματα από την Κρήτη....

    The farmer's market is usually once a week and usually in neighbouring areas different days, so it may be Wednesday in one place and Thursday on the next. Also, the earlier you go the better products you can choose. Prices vary during the day, etc. It's like a local stock exchange

  • @dennis85573

    The problem with the farmer's markets in Greece is that not all the produce is coming directly from the farms. The government allows retailers to sell their produce at the market. This causes price increases and lack of fresh produce. Many a times I find cheaper prices and fresher produce at the supermarkets.

    @@bogdanpopescu1401 Apparently ash from Etna has been seen in Greece before. Perhaps it will again be seen again. Phreatomagmatic ash from the ongoing eruption of Etna reaching the Greek island of Cefalonia August 2003 Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research. Abstract On October 26, 2002, Etna volcano, Sicily (southern Italy), entered a new eruptive phase, characterised by the usual effusive activity from fissure vents located both on the southern and on the northern sector of the summit area. In addition, explosive events of unusual intensity were recorded at the beginning of the eruption and produced a substantial plume rich in fine ash particles and steam. On October 27, fine ash from the plume, blown by the wind, was reported falling on the island of Cefalonia, Greece, which is located approximately 500 km east of the volcano. In this communication, we report on the study of fine ash from the eruption as collected on Cefalonia. We elaborate on the nature of the peculiar type of explosion mechanism that led to such an unusual manifestation of Etna, which is phreatomagmatism. This finding draws a new picture of the eruptive scenario of this active volcano, and requires a careful evaluation of the hazard that similar events might pose in the future. Not just the surroundings of the volcano but also the aviation corridors of the southern Mediterranean area could be potentially affected.
