Store bought isn't the same at all.<br /><br />Stephanie - I really did think succotash was a kind of squash until a few years ago. *blushes* <br /><br />Tere- I might convince the family to try it deep fried.

I've corrupted a whole generation.<br /><br />Plus, there's a farmer's market opening next week a few miles away.

I'm sure your local farmers really appreciate the support of people who sign up for the co-op. And you're helping ensure that a traditional way of life stays viable for those farmers.<br /><br />Not to mention, you're feeding your family quality produce. They may not thank you now, but I bet they'll thank you later. :)Tere Kirklandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13562750950130316280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5329782430566577328.post-75840698067602538932011-04-25T14:04:52.070-04:002011-04-25T14:04:52.070-04:00Succotash.

Then I can say goodbye to produce from the store for several months!Scott Nivenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13884995224013397488noreply@blogger.com
