Eating Fresh & Local

Sometimes you don't need a long list and a big grocery store for the best recipes.  Sometimes all you need can be found at your local farmer's market!  In other words, a good rule of thumb is that if you can't grow it yourself, at least try to find someone else locally who does before relying on the grocery store.  Summer in the south is a key time to find some of our favorites at the local farmer's markets.   There have been many times when we would day trip to the Charleston area for a bigger selection of locally grown produce and even meats.  So remember to always try to eat local and support your local farmers and fishermen whenever possible.
