Harvest Joy

Late August in to September is the ultimate time to harvest or seek out fruits and vegetables are that ready, ripe, and delicious. Let's just call it what it is - harvest joy. Followed by eating joy. 

If you're not a home vegetable or fruit grower, look no further than your neighborhood farmer's markets, roadside stands or hurry up and subscribe to a community supported agriculture (CSA) program. Grocery stores are loaded with regional and locally grown produce. Warning - shopping the fresh produce aisle while you're hungry may be hazardous to your shirt when biting in to a Palisade peach!

How's your harvest coming along? Are you staying on top of the number of squash, peppers and tomatoes that are screaming at you to be plucked, eaten or shared? For helpful harvest and storage tips check out the handy chart below.
