Locavoring

For the last two weeks I've been helping myself to blueberries on various rocky outcrops. We didn't have the right combination of rain and sun to get a great crop like last year, but I've enjoyed fresh berries every morning with my cereal and put a few litres in the freezer, as well as baking muffins and blueberry lemon loaf.

Harvested a small crop of gooseberries from by bush in the front yard. Still have to figure out what to do with those.

And we are enjoying our weekly supply of fresh organic vegetables from Chestnut Farm, which now includes new potatoes in addition to carrots, turnips, beets and assorted greens.
