Three Ways to Eat Fresh Year-Round

Fresh picked produce is loaded with flavor and nutrients

1. Find a Local Farmers' Market
   The USDA maintains a comprehensive list of markets in every state. Go to http://www.ams.usda.gov/farmersmarkets.

2. Join a CSA
   Short for Community Supported Agriculture, this is an arrangement between consumers and farmers in which you pay an up-front fee for regular deliveries of produce in season. To find one near you, visit localharvest.org.

3. Go Local When You Dine Out
   You can find restaurants, shops, and even bed-and-breakfasts around the country that use local produce and other food products by doing a zip-code search at eatwellguide.org.
