Does anyone else here do that? Any farmer's market goers? I love it, it's my bread and butter. Out here in Virginia, you can find pretty much whatever you need if you look hard enough. I get the bulk of my fruit and vegetables from farmer's markets and I'm totally hooked on farm fresh eggs. Soon enough I'm going to look at other ways I can incorporate local agriculture into my own kitchen, as well as doing some gardening of my own.
Meat is another issue entirely. There are farms that will sell you meat in droves, 1/4, 1/2, and full cows, 1/2 and full pigs, etc. I've also found a place that produces their own flours for baking on the mill they have on their farm. I'll be looking into that soon.
So...is anyone else trying to keep things local?
