There is nothing better than enjoying the freshness of produce that is at the peak of its season. When buying from a local farmers’ market there is always great satisfaction knowing where your food came from. Not only are you supporting the local farmer’s and craftsman in the area, you get first-hand experience meeting the people that helped create and provide the food that you are about to eat and the products that you will be using. While you are in Maine check out the local Farmer’s Markets that are in your area. Now that you have attended a local farmers market with the fresh produce what should you make? Check out this recipe for Ratatouille, where you can get the most flavor out of those in season vegetables! #getrealgetmaine
