Synopses & Reviews
Locally grown, seasonal fresh foods sold straight from the farmer to the consumer are more than just a passing fad. These unprocessed, beautifully natural foods are a way of life.
There is nothing better than knowing who grew or made the foods you enjoy daily. Tammy Algood may not live on a farm, but her appreciation for farmers and agriculture has greatly influenced her food choices her whole life. Tammy says, Annually, we are given incredible food gifts that sometimes subtly and other times dramatically shift and change in texture and flavor as the days move from long to short. It is nature's grocery store. Make it your regular stop and you'll be amazed at the difference it makes when that food is placed on your breakfast, lunch, and dinner table.

Synopsis
Is there anything better than a kitchen countertop spread with the spoils of a Saturday morning at the farmers' market? Every trip yields some new assortment of old favorites and newfound treasures. One week, you're tempted by the sun-warmed heirloom tomatoes and the Mason jars brimming with orange blossom honey. Another week, it's the slabs of milky Havarti cheese and the Red Haven peaches heavy with juice enticing you to spend just a little more than you'd planned. Kentucky pole beans, silky ears of sweet corn, and sacks of stone-ground buckwheat flour may find their way into your basket on another visit.
