Conservationists know that it is environmentally sound to buy local produce and eat according to the bounty of the season. It saves energy, reduces waste, promotes organic practices and keeps local landscapes functional. Foodies always say "fresh tastes best" and while I’m not a great cook, some of the best meals I’ve ever made have been simple, fresh and spontaneous gatherings with friends and family. Enjoy the flavors of the fall and support your local farmers market.
