What Will Be Most Abundant in the Produce Section This Fall Season?

This fall harvest, look for plenty of stock and great pricing on the produce listed below. In this newsletter, we have created healthy recipes for you to enjoy that take advantage of the availability of this season’s produce. All of the recipes help create health and wellness for your body, while some do double duty by targeting specific diseases and allergies, as well! Please enjoy all of them several times this autumn, and watch for the winter produce availability and recipes to follow in the next issue. *
