The Country Pumpkin

We visited a local vegetable stand this weekend…the 'Country Pumpkin'. It is one of my favorite places to visit for local produce….and boy…they did not disappoint.

Here is a list of the local fruit and vegetables now available:

Raspberries, strawberries, lettuce, corn, zucchini, broccoli, beans, peas, onions and potatoes.

This is the second time this year I have found NB potatoes. Usually, I can only find ones from PEI.

Plus, from Quebec- carrots…. and Ontario- peaches and plums.

Wow….what a feast. I guess if one was going to try the 100 mile diet in NB...mid July is a time to start. I will note when local produce reduces again…. I am guessing around mid-October
