Around here, it's not quite so easy to come across local food as it was in Lancaster. That is to say every second house does not have a sign advertising some yummy home-grown thing to stop and buy. We do have an in with a fabulous dairy farmer whose cows are pastured and make yummy milk ;o), and Bessy from the freezer sure tastes good! So we haven't explored the other beef and raw milk suppliers much here.
We have joined an online farmers' market (Stones River Market) where we got lots of summer veggies, pastured chicken, pork, eggs, and a couple of gallons of milk (for the cats, of course). This week's order :
garlic, ground pork, pork fat for making lard, collard greens, lettuce, and
Arknsas black apples
We had enjoyed a similar market while in Sewanee and were thrilled to find such a convenient way to get great local foods.
Where do you get your local foods? Have you found an online farmers' market in your area?
