Spring is here

By

 It's been a cooler start this spring and preliminary reports show that we will have reasonable summer while the rest of the country will be battling heat.




If you need some tasty freshness in your life right now, locally grown produce is the most nutrient-rich and nutrient dense way to fill your body with the vitamins and minerals we all crave.  How about adding a tasty snap to your salads with colourful radishes, grated beets, microgreens and locally grown salad mixes.  Add a hard boiled local egg and you've got a quick and easy meal ready to go.



If you prefer others to do the prep work, how about some wonderful frozen food to take home?  The variety never ceases to change and within a few minutes you can build an easy-to-enjoy lunch or dinner.
