Does your stall have a tent? How many villagers are you trying to feed? How many stalls do you have? How much do you have in storage?

Rustic food is the most basic of foods. Maximise your berry collection so that the market trader can quickly restock from your granary.

Where are each of those in relation to each other and how many workers in storage/items stocked there.

Early game it's good to put the granary right next to the market. Producers don't move anything they produce.

Granary, Storage Yard and Builders will go any distance they need to to get what they stock or need to build with (short distances always better for flow). Any one who needs an item goes and gets it from the nearest source. So ideally your market trader is right next the granary for short turn around time to be selling again while the granary worker keeps going back and forth to the gathering hut. Also adding a tent increases the amount a stall can hold.

Optimising worker needs so they're close by and can get back to work quicker is important (and add benches - they like to sit out of work time and it also creates pathing destinations)

HOWEVER... start with the cloth over the stall. The stall works when it has stock regardless of if the worker is there. So the more you can get on the stall the longer it'll work before it needs refilling.

While I agree, maximizing berries might not be enough, depending on OP's setup.

@opiscoward A screenshot with some details of the market and/or a villager would be great in order to better be able to help

there are about 280 population and about 12 stalls of food. with tents, about 30 foods each. they are mainly in one area, but a few singles in others.

Can you post a screenshot of the layout? It might be easier to see the issue that way.

Ensuring you're producing enough should go without saying ...

They key I've found is to put storage for the Market as close to the Market Stalls as possible. Let the Transporters do all the walking.
