Farm Fresh




Today Ryan and I hit up our fave local farm/garden stop R&C Farms on RT 123 Scituate.

We weren't looking for anything particular just getting excited knowing spring will be here soon and we want to start getting our garden ready. We love  to walk around the property visit the different greenhouses and check out the abundance of options to plant in our garden. Today R&C is still getting ready for the warm weather and what will soon be their busy season, but we did pick up some pansies to mix in with the crocuses and irises that are starting to sprout up at our house! We also took advantage of a great program that R&C does and we joined the CSA(Community Supported Agriculture) program. For a reasonable fee we bought a 1/2 share of their seasonal harvest,  this program  will provide us with fresh local produce weekly starting in mid June and ending in mid October. I am SO looking forward to having some fresh local veggies every week! I also cant wait to test out my culinary skills finding new and tasty recipes with the familiar and some new unfamiliar foods we will be getting. Its nice to know where your food is coming from and I know I will def be saving some $$ this summer in my grocery budget!
