The high prices at the supermarket are getting even higher here, so we took a trip out to our favorite local farm to see if we could manage more for our dollar there. We also wanted to give some support to our local growers, as they took a hard hit from Hurricane Ian.
It's pumpkin season, of course, and they had lots (I really wish I liked pumpkin, but sadly no.)
I have peppers in the freezer from the summer garden, or I would have grabbed these. I opted for some sweet potatoes and red onions, and a big bag of corn on the cob. It's actually more than we can eat, but I'm going to blanche half the corn and freeze it.
The owners always do a nice display with this old wagon; in the summer they load it up with watermelon. Alas, autumn is here.
I was also happy to find a bottle of raw honey from a local beekeeper for sale. If you can support your local growers, please do.
