Happy Friday Everyone!
The best tasting and most nutritious food is the food grown closest to your home. It supports local farmers, is cheaper, and helps the environment (less transportation pollution). I'll be hitting the farmer's market this weekend, and shopping for some seasonal goodies. To get a specific list of the food in-season in your state, please click here and click on your state. I live in Florida, so here is my list:
Asian Pears, Avocado, Bananas, Blackberries, Cantaloupe, Endive, Escarole, Grapefruit, Guava,
Limes, Mangoes, Mushrooms, Okra, Onions, Oranges, Papaya, Passion Fruit, Peppers, Potatoes, Sweet Corn, Tomatoes
I will be interested to see how this list fares at my local Farmer's Market. You can find your local market or co-op at the Local Harvest website. I will post my purchases, and how the costs compare to the organic produce department at my local supermarket (I go to Publix).
Have a great weekend! Be sure to email me any organic deals you find. Also, if you have any great recipes for seasonal produce send them my way, and I'll post it on my site under your name.
