It is summer!! There is nothing better than a Seattle summer and one of my favorite parts of NW summer time is all the wonderful produce! In season produce means better taste and higher nutrients. Also, if you are getting your produce from farmers markets your ecological footprint is reduced (I’ll argue this if you are pro streamlining distribution) and you are supporting local farming families. Farmers markets have been exploding all over the country and I hope we can recover the relationship farmers used to have with their community as members and not subsidized factories. Look here for what’s in season in the NW. Look here to find a farmers market is Seattle.
