Dear Foodies,
As you know, food is my passion. But not just any food. Real food. Raw food. Local food.
And, food in season.
In my work at the farmers market, I have discovered that most of the shoppers have no clue about seasonality.
(For any of you shoppers before mentioned, seasonality is the simple fact that certain foods are meant to grow in certain seasons. This varies by location.)
I heard some stories from the farmers about shoppers coming to their booths and asking "Where are all the tomatoes?". And it's May.
Now, I can't claim to have all the knowledge of when different foods are in season, but a good way to find out is ask your farmer, "What IS in season right now?". Farmers like people who ask questions. Trust me. : )
