Today's tip!

Try going to your community's local farmer's market. Usually held once a week, often on the weekend, they are a great place to help support the local economy, as well as find great fresh foods. Buying local also means that the fruits and vegetables you buy will have traveled shorter distances, saving on gas, and meaning they pack a healthier punch of vitamins and minerals. You can also find baked goods, flowers, and plants as well at many farmer's markets. It's an easy way to cut out the middle man and get a great deal on fresh food!
