For those of you who are looking to buy local, seasonal, and organic -- I know it's a challenge but it can be done!
I haven't reached that point in time where I can say, "Why, yes, I do buy all my groceries seasonally, locally, and organically. Aren't I amazing?" I'm working on it, slowly yet surely. I'm sure it will be much easier here in the PNW once summer comes back. But in the meantime . . . here's one website to help you find what's seasonal in your state, if you live in the US.
It's a pretty cool interactive map which tells you what's seasonal. Plus it looks lovely, too! Makes it a bit easier to find local foods, if you ask me. Try and incorporate some local veg/fruit in your weekly meals. :)
If you're living in Washington, you can find a CSA near you using this website. Type in your zip code, tell it how far away you're willing to drive and BAM! Farm fresh foods at a reasonable price (some CSA farms even have boxes specifically for juicing!). And maybe, they might deliver right to your door!
It's very exciting and it's very interesting. I'm super excited to start shopping farmers markets and signing up for CSA boxes!
I'll keep you posted, I'm sure.
Cheers!
