They’re not all fake. Some are. Look for local farms, know your growing seasons. The wholesalers give them so little for their crop it still makes sense for them to sell to you if you’ll buy it.
Even a real farm will wholesale you strawberries out of season if you’ll buy them, they just want to augment their income.
My local place labels where stuff comes from and when it’s corn or pepper season, it’s WAY cheaper than the local market.
