TJs is great, but I've found that even store organic doesn't compare to local organic.<br /><br />Chris- splitting with a family would be great, or just take planned trips to Chino Hills for FREE bounty ;)<br /><br />Jim- I concur ;) <br /><br />Nikki- you are in a GREAT area. I feel pretty lucky that we are surrounded by so many options! who knew? ;)Lisa Spectorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17831874154874369890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-61327652997114820372010-06-03T14:13:23.849-04:002010-06-03T14:13:23.849-04:00You know I am a fan of Polyface! Love all the book...You know I am a fan of Polyface! Love all the books too of course...really should be required reading I think. I doubt any of your readers will be local to me but just in case here is my plug for supporting one of my favorite local farms in Skagit Valley-<br />Fresh glass bottled Milk is a staple in our home from-<br />http://www.goldenglencreamery.com/index.htm<br />No hormones and antibiotics in their milk and there's nothing like fresh milk. I won't clog your comments page with all the local farms we visit for our berries and fresh veggies...love our choices here. Plus you can't beat Farmers Markets of course. So glad you are finding all the options out there too Lisa! Such a great area also!Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12574089510593263514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-59745897564738097642010-06-02T21:29:05.089-04:002010-06-02T21:29:05.089-04:00HOLY CRAP!!!

Also, they have a program through Joe's school where they deliver whatever's fresh (either from their farm or another co-op) once a week. Next year I'd like to find another family to hook up with to split the bounty and the cost which is I think $25 per week.ChrisLShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01981483082471666805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-14296545139925908492010-06-02T16:50:20.605-04:002010-06-02T16:50:20.605-04:00Yes, strawberries, pole beans, regular beans, lett...Yes, strawberries, pole beans, regular beans, lettuce and tomatoes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-63816941529004099912010-06-02T13:25:27.634-04:002010-06-02T13:25:27.634-04:00Madge- YOU are your farmer ;) aren't you growi...Madge- YOU are your farmer ;) aren't you growing more this year?<br /><br />Laura- Thanks! Glad you get some good info from the posts. Also, do you go to the farmer's markets? Ask someone there who is selling berries if they know where you can go. Sometimes they will let you on their farm anyway, even if they aren't U-pick. Also talk with them about how much they spray, it might only be a bit for fungus.<br /><br />Clint- Thanks!! We had such a nice time!Lisa Spectorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17831874154874369890noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-49185112115110357812010-06-02T13:06:18.315-04:002010-06-02T13:06:18.315-04:00Awesome post, Lisa.Awesome post, Lisa.Clint Sellershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09801287035669025624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-9594124227532053652010-06-02T11:33:37.898-04:002010-06-02T11:33:37.898-04:00I have to say all your talk about food has been in...I have to say all your talk about food has been inspiring. We just picked up our 100% grass fed beef order from SevenSons last weekend. SUCH tasty burgers! We also joined an egg buying club which delivers eggs from their farm...free range chickens with no antibiotics, no hormones, etc. As far as chicken goes we've been buying from Gunthrop Farms through our local Farm Fresh Delivery orders. I've been googling like crazy looking for a no spray strawberry farm...no luck yet. Keep up the great posts and the helfpful info!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07100528875362803475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2877702996677988214.post-3725828266709716572010-06-02T10:44:36.772-04:002010-06-02T10:44:36.772-04:00Love that you do this.
