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!
