Many Farmers' Markets are now open in Ocean County, a delicious and healthy way to feed your family this summer here at the Jersey Shore. We thank Ocean County Tourism for the latest information
One of my very favorite summer foods is melon. Honeydew, cantaloupe, and watermelon are always nice, refreshing, healthy treats. But when it comes to actually choosing a melon, I still haven't found the perfect advice yet.
This is one of the best seasons for farm stands. From pumpkins and other squash, to apples and of course New Jersey's signature cranberries, fall produce is some of the best.
There are few things more disappointing than really looking forward to some nice, tasty produce, getting home, cutting into it, and being totally underwhelmed. Everyone has their tricks for picking out the best melons, fruit, and vegetables, but it's almost never foolproof. Knowing where to get the most reliable produce is a good start, though!
