I can't wait for the first South Hadley Farmers Market. Last year we had some really great vendors. (Including bread from El Jardin, vegetables and herbs from Farmacy Gardens, meat from Leyden Glen Farm, and more!)
While I have to wait until June 3rd for the first South Hadley Farmers Market I am flipping through a few of the best cook books that pay homage to eating local. These books have some great recipes that I can't wait to try out on my fresh produce!
