Bring on Spring!

It is March 1 and I don't know about you, but I am ready for Spring! I thought I would start the month by posting the fruits and veggies that are in season during springtime- isn't it awesome how God switches it up for us season-by-season! Hopefully, this will inspire you to branch out and find what is in season in your area. It might even inspire you to plant something for the seasons to come at your home, (probably not me, but maybe for you)! I am really going to focus on purchasing local produce this year, I put the farmers market dates on my calendar and I am excited to try new things and support the locals!
