I'm looking at some pictures and it's not what I would picture. Is there any term or location that is basically selling produce right out of a truck more than a craft fair for vegetables?

I live near an affluent part of a major city and the farmers markets around here can often be 3x or 4x the price of chain grocery stores.

Like $15 for a dozen eggs, heads of lettuce for $8, $35 per lb cuts of steak. They are marketed for wealthy clientele.
