We make an effort to eat and purchase locally three seasons a year, but during the winter it would be slim pickings. I'm so grateful that one of the best grocery chains in the United States makes its home in Rochester. The flagship store is Pittsford is actually a tourist destination, and it's my go-to grocery store along with Trader Joe's. I had a couple things in mind for SNAP this week, but after several gray, snowy days here, when I walked into Wegman's this morning I knew right away I wanted to feature the bright colors of the produce.
At least half, maybe more, of my grocery cart each week is produce (except in the summer when I shop at the local farmers' markets). It's not inexpensive, but I figure it's part of our health plan! Linking to Helena's meme SNAP, and off to see what other finds folks have made this week.
