Food and agriculture of any kind will only stay fresh for so long. There are tricks to prolonging the freshness and making it last longer, yet if you want fresh from the garden taste, then you need to check out some farmers markets for your produce needs.
Farmers markets are a tremendous untapped resource. There has been a dramatic increase in these markets thanks to local farmers selling their produce the day that it is picked. The farmer's market is a great place to find organic produce as well.
Organic fruits and vegetables are guaranteed by the USDA to not contain any pesticides. There are strict rules on what can be labeled as organic and what cannot. Small farmers are discovering that it is much easier to sell organically grown vegetables than it is to compete with large scale, factory farming operations.
Farmers markets are wonderful meeting places for people who are interested in improving the quality of their food. Even the best chefs know that a farmer's market is the key to successful dishes.
You can get the same produce and food that they do. If you do not know of a local farmers market, then you can always check out www.localharvest.org to get a listing of the markets that are closest to you.
