rounding-up to avoid handling change is the norm when paying cash in "tippable" situations like at restaurants or farmer's markets.

Is it normal in the US to tip at a farmers market?

"Tip" probably isn't the word anyone here would use, because they're not calculating a specific percentage. In practice, though, "keep the change" is something you'd be likely to hear at one.

No.
Malicious compliance is fun.
Besides, having to have change is the really big cost of cash handling. Almost all your customers come in with big notes from an ATM and leave with smaller notes or coins, so you have to keep getting change from the bank.
