OMG it seems like years since I've had fresh, local produce even though it's only been 6 months. Our Farmer's Market kicks off their summer season tomorrow, with fresh free-range chicken, pork, and beef, plus strawberries, asparagus, sugar snap peas, spring onions, lettuce, chinese cabbage, and radishes. WHOOO HOOO for local produce! We're doing Mother's Day a week early this year (so this Sunday), I'm gonna make my mom Wild Alaskan Salmon (her fav, and a "best choice" on the seafood watch list), wild rice, and asaparagus, with ice cream topped with strawberries. ::drool::
Plus, I'm taking her to an organic gardening class at her local wildlife center, it's gonna be AWESOME. I hope they teach me how to transplant tomatoes, that's next up on my gardening to-do list. All our seedlings survived this year! Hooray!
[I'm in a good mood, can you tell? ]
Anyone else planning on doing something special this weekend?
Re: SO EXCITED for fresh local produce
Our market opens in May, too, but I'm not sure exactly when. DS and I will be there with bells on when it does!

Ours opens tomorrow too! WOOHOO!
I don't even care that it's supposed to rain all weekend!
I went to the farmers market last weekend, they already had a lot of stuff, so I'll be going back tomorrow!
On Sunday, I'm going to a class to learn how to make butter and cheese!
