What's wrong with growing vegetables and berries outside of cities in greenhouses?

They store shorter and lose a lot more nutrition in transit. They are more expensive to harvest but are more caloric dense in a given area. Its why raspberries are like 5 dollars a pound but bananas are 50 cents. One has a much longer shelf life.
But driving from the outskirts of a city to the inside, is just a 1 hour journey.
