"After you have exhausted what there is in business,
politics, conviviality, and so on - have found that none
of these finally satisfy, or permanently wear - what
remains? Nature remains."
Walt Whitman

Locally grown food tastes better,
is more nutritious, and is less dependent on
fossil fuels than food picked before it's
ripe and transported hundreds or thousands of
miles. Besides, it's more fun to talk to
the folks that grow or raise what you eat.
Support local
growers by visiting their farm stands, stopping by one of the
farmers' markets, or participating in a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program.
Hours may be seasonal, so please call before dropping by.
