Local Bounty



After a rough start, we've finally reached the point in the season when fruits and vegetables are bountiful, and there's something new to see virtually every day.

I love to barter. In fact, I try to never turn down a trade with a food vendor. I even trade for things I don't particularly want. Someone on my crew will eat it.

Sometimes I come back from the market and I look at all the stuff I've acquired and I wonder what I'm going to do with it all. What a wonderful problem to have. Too much great food.

By the way, "Local Bounty" is the title of a cookbook I'll be publishing with Book Publishing Company this fall: vegan recipes based on local, seasonal ingredients.
