By now, you've done most all (we hope?) of your Thanksgiving grocery shopping for the grand feast. While the majority of the shopping list can be covered at the mega grocery store chains, it's always nice to support local farmers and food purveyors whenever possible. We were just at the Ferry Plaza market in San Francisco scoping out the apples for a fall salad, and the Marietta Square market in Georgia to pick up squash to roast as a side. At the Greenmarket in NYC, we also picked some bread from the bakery Bread Alone for stuffing.

How did you split up your shopping for Thanksgiving? Did you get all your goods at one store? A combination of smaller markets to support small businessfolk and chain grocery stores? Take the poll »
