Mennonite market

 Mennonites of Canada till the land and sell produce of their work at farmers' markets. They don't sell anything special (although what they sell is usually organic, and that includes meat), you will see similar produce at other farmers' markets, but they are pictoresque because they in a different way that we do. They (or at least some of them) also don't use cars, all their transport being by horse-drawn carts.

All their clothing is supposed to be self-made, although (as one of the pictures here proves) shoes can sometimes be shop-bought.
