For the past few months I have been working closely with a local organic farmer. I am helping him with his newsletter, research, marketing and social media presence. One of the many benefits to this is that when I shop at the farmers market, he gives me a nice little bag of treats from his farm! Some of my goodies have included - rosemary, kale, peppers, celery, red onions, yellow onions, garlic, radishes, eggs, beets, red romaine lettuce. I think the fresh produce is so beautiful that i have to take pictures every chance I get. When we return from the market, the kids and I enjoy spreading it all out over the table (adding our fresh produce from the supermarket) and counting all the colors and arranging it for a photo shoot!! 
Today we visited the local farmers market and picked up some local honey, drinkable yogurt from a local farm, homemade iced cookies and some wonderful honey toasted pecans too!!
I made my first batch of fresh pico/salsa with the peppers, tomatoes, onions (added some garlic, lime, cilantro, salt & pepper) today. Amazing how many fruits and veg you can get into a kid when they see it this way!!!!! Good stuff.
