How are you supporting your local farmers?

One topic I talk a lot about is buy fruits and vegetables locally and seasonally.

When we visited Oregon last month we enjoyed shopping at a family farm. This sign

posted at the end of the parking lot caught my eye.

Here is a picture of the old packing shed where we bought some fresh fruits locally in the Hood Oregon
region.

I loved the old-fashioned atmosphere of this fruit stand and meeting the owner!

Have you heard of or shopped at the “Fruit Loop” of family owned fruit farms and orchards in the Hood River, Oregon area? Tell me about your local orchards, farmer’s markets and homegrown vegetable stands! I will publish pictures at my website if you want to share.
