The eating is good at the farmers' market this time of year. Some summer favorites are beginning to appear--corn, peaches, cherries, tomatoes, beans...to name a few. And each week, I come home with something new to add to my garden. Last week it was a beautiful mandevilla vine, that I'll keep in a container but allow to wind it's way around a garden fence for the summer.
If you're like most people, your weekend plans will include firing up the grill. There are plenty of good local foods to add to your fare or cook up on the grill. Here's an easy recipe for grilling corn, and a wealth of recipes for the sweet cherries you'll find at the market. My favorite being the cherry dump cobbler.
And remember, be sure to check the sidebar on our blog, for an up-to-date shopping list.
Wishing you a happy, safe Independence Day full of local eating!
See you at the Market!
