It's official. This is the best time to visit the Farmers Market. Here in Old Town Alexandria, there were Blueberries, Strawberries, Asparagus, Ramps, and Brussels sprouts. All my favorite foods.
I conducted a taste-test with my husband, comparing the Blueberries he bought at the Grocery Store with the Blueberries I bought at the Farmers Market. (He's not as passionate about eating Local, Seasonal food as I am, although he is coming around...this was a great chance to remind him of the difference). The taste in difference was pretty remarkable.
If you are trying to convince someone about the importance of buying Local food, do a taste-test. Now, is the perfect time!
Saturday night, I ate a pint of strawberries and one whole cantaloupe for dinner. Today's lunch, may be a pint of blueberries. I can't get enough of them!
