Eat Healthy, Eat Fresh, Eat Local!

School is out and summer holidays have begun!  While you're making your plans for the summer, make sure to think about what you'll be eating.  Every fall as the snow starts to fall, I have customers tell me they want to start making smoothies and green drinks.  They have decided to start eating local and healthier....but they best time to do that is right now.  The vegetable season (and berries from a lot of other local Manitoba farms)  is just getting started and it tastes so good! 
This summer, check out your local farmers' market!   
My personal favorite is the Lac du Bonnet Farmers' Market.  It runs every Saturday from 10-1 and goes well into fall,   (we'll be there every Saturday!)  There are 30-50 vendors every week and a huge variety of veggies, preserves, baking, honey, meats, crafts....it's all great stuff!  You can even check out the lemonade stand my kids set up (it's not the healthy option, but who can resist those cute smiles!)  
Hope you all enjoy a wonderful, healthy summer!  Happy Canada Day!

The gardens are looking great and we're looking forward to an awesome season!  We've eaten a few peas already  and should have some for sale in about a week.   The cucumbers have set fruit and should be ready in a couple weeks.  We are taking orders for pickling cukes.  The corn is looking good too, but it is still going to be a while before we're eating fresh corn on the cob!

The greenhouse still has a fair amount of flowers, vegetable and herb plants.  So if you need to fill in any gaps in your garden or flower bed, stop by before it's too late.  We also still have a few pumpkin plants left for our annual pumpkin growing contest.  Please ask for one, sometimes I forget to hand them out!  It's a great way for me to increase our odds of winning!!!
