Fresher than Fresh

Farmers markets are the best way to stay healthy. This is my strong opinion, not exactly fact. You get the freshest produce, as well as that which is in season, thus maintaining the balance of nature. You are also supporting your local farmers and small business owners. I like that.

We love shopping our farmers markets, and have two that we frequent regulary. A few weeks ago we bought 6 ears of corn for $1.20. They had clearly been picked that morning.

5 of the 6 ears of corn had caterpillars on them. Quel Surprise!

Don't worry, we ate chicken with it as our source of protein. I consider myself pretty granola and earthy. But not THIS much.
