Today I made my first trip to the farm, and I know it will not be my last. Just look at all the goodies (my "spoil") we were able to bring home. And can you believe it cost us only $20?!!! It is truly unbelievable. Great, fresh produce; no harmful chemicals. It is picked the night before or even the same day to ensure that the produce is fully ripe and fresh.

After about an hour and a half later, all produce was washed and chopped; greens were put through a salad spinner; and everything was set out to dry a bit for refrigeration and easy use. As you can imagine, by getting my produce prepped ahead of time reduces a lot of work later on. The picture below shows all of my "spoil", although, noticeably missing are tomatoes and a couple of cucumbers and radishes: Demetrye and I were hungry by the time we got home, so we made ourselves a scrumptious lunch. I will post the recipes of our lunch in the next post.



Folks, I would encourage you to find a local ORGANIC farm and support them with your purchasing dollars. Keep them in business and save money at the same time. You will feel so much better about shopping!!!
