A shop selling stuff produced by a farm sells farm produce. So yes, vending=* would be better as it removes the ambiguity, except for the problem that vending=* doesn't really mean that in OSM but is used in conjunction with vending machines. Oh, and we should really have used product=* rather than produce=* to resolve that ambiguity, but we didn't. Mainly, I suspect, because in English "produce" refers to things that are grown and "product" refers to things that are made/extracted. Don't ask me why that is, but nobody would talk of farm product or factory produce. -- Paul
