    We have a great farmers’ market here in the city. It’s called Green City Market, and it houses a bunch of different farm stands. This week we spent $30 and bought the following local, (mostly) organic produce:

    A quart of green beans
    Red potatoes (about 6)
    One white onion
    Alfalfa sprouts
    Spinach
    A potted dill plant
    One white peach (for Jude to enjoy while watching the band play at the market)
    One green pepper
    Two large zucchini
    One heirloom tomato
    Six ears of corn

    I’m still looking for simple, vegetarian meals to add to our menu pool. Feel free to leave suggestions in the comments section.
