Food prices today for onions, potatoes, tomatoes, lettuce, avocados and strawberries: USDA wholesale and shipping point quotes with price charts, change against a year earlier, grocery ad prices by region and daily…
- what growers were paid at shipping point
- what buyers paid at the big city wholesale markets
- what prices supermarkets advertised in their weekly ads
This data comes out as dozens of separate text reports and PDFs, one per market, with no history and no way to see how prices change over time.
I think this should be public data that is easy to access and understand, so I built an open-source tracker for it.

One suggestion, /food-prices/retail table sortable by column asc/desc just like in commodities
I like ordering by percentage desc to see the highest price jump
