| Pick Your Own You want to go back to your farming roots? You would like to get the freshest produce direct from the farm? Honestly even if you purchase from the farmers' market, you might not get the freshest produce since you have no idea how long the produce has been kept on their shelves. The only true way is to own a farm yourself or just join this "Pick Your Own" initiative. Basically you find out which is the nearest farm to your location, gives you the timing and dates where you can go "pick your own" and that is it! They claim to update their listings daily and users can add their own farms as well. Even farmers can add their farms or update their current listings. Oh, check out their numerous recipes for making jam, jelly, salsa, pickles, apple butter and many others. I mean with so many produce in hand you might want to think of some way to preserve them right? These illustrated guides are extremely handy to have, especially when you cannot finish those apples or berries you have just picked. So make a jam or something. |
