I appreciate the idea but this is a little misleading. They chose to label transportation for farmers markets but not CSA boxes. There is obviously transportation involved in both.
They highlight delivery as a step in the food delivery service, but don’t label it similarly when the consumer goes to the store to pick it up. I might argue there’s efficiency in having one delivery driver vs everyone acting as their own delivery driver.

Afaik food delivery services have drivers fulfill orders one by one. So it’s essentially the same thing if you go there yourself or if the delivery driver does it.
It’s more efficient when one truck delivers to multiple people. Like CSA boxes. Instead of each of those people driving their own car to the store/market and back, there’s one car that delivers to them all in a single route.

My farm CSA pickup is at the farm. Whereas the farmer’s markets aren’t.
