Both convenience stores and supermarkets have a mix of big-name brands
and own-brand items.  The differences are size, hours and price.  I go
to the supermarket because it has a wider range and is cheaper but if
the supermarket is closed and I'm desperate I go to the convenience
store.

Returning to farm shops, a shop that is miles away from the farm and
is run by different people is, in my opinion, just a shop not a farm shop.

I can't find that in ID.  Is that the raw tag it produces or just the name
of
the preset that gives shop=farm?  When I use ID that preset identifies
itself as farm shop but ID may have localized that name for American
usage.  Or you've found something I haven't.

So, how should manure appear?

Good question.  One which will no doubt attract vehement opinions
both ways. :)

It depends what you do with it.  Both directions.  Many decades ago sewage
works here used to sell pelletized processed human waste as fertilizer.  I
think
that is now illegal, but I'm not sure.  Farms around here have to prevent
animal excrement contaminating waterways so have slurry pits.  If you
sell the stuff to put it on rose bushes it's manure; if you have to dispose
of it then it's sewage.
