Seasonal Saturday: Preparing for One Week of Local Foods

Inspired by a project I’m doing for my Community Nutrition class, I’m preparing for one week of eating only locally grown, seasonal food.

⠀

This week’s Portland Farmers Market haul includes:

⠀

Strawberries, blackberries, padron peppers, cherry tomatoes, violet radishes, spearmint, and cabbage from Groundwork Organics

⠀

Spinach raab, oregano, rainbow beets from Simington Gardens

⠀

Basil, tarragon, chives, and squash blossoms from Gathering Together Farm

⠀

Whole wheat sourdough, rosemary, and rolled oats (not pictured) from Gee Creek Farm

⠀

Pastured lamb, beef, and chicken eggs from SuDan Farm

⠀

Chèvre from Fraga Farm

⠀

Shiitake mushrooms from Rick's Wild Mushrooms ⠀

Eat seasonally and support your local farmers!
