It's time to eat and be merry!

It may have come a few weeks late, but here we finally are, it's local eating time.

With the Manitoba garlic, green and yellow beans, carrots, beets, peas, cucumbers, lettuces, hot house tomatoes, potatoes, strawberries, raspberries and saskatoons now all in season, there is no excuse for not eating well right now. If you have friends or family members who have been 'off' vegetables for a while, now is the time to re-introduce them to what in season fruits and vegetables SHOULD taste like. I have many customers' kids who suddenly eat things that they never would in the winter.

The freezing and pickling season will be starting in a few weeks, so now is the time to start gathering your jars, vinegar, and salt in preparation. I will be sure to let you all know when the time will be right.

Take Care
Erin
