Buy Local

Now that spring is here, why not check out your local farmers' markets? Nothing compares to the taste of fresh vegetables -- and if you shop carefully, you can prepare something for dinner that was still on the vine in the morning.

Look for farmers' markets in fun places -- our local microbrewer offers his parking lot up once a week on Wednesday to local producers -- and uses their produce at his restaurant. If yours doesn't do it yet, why not suggest it to them? It is great to get lunch, a beer, and my veggies for the week!
