Abundance

Our local farmer's market shopping list from this morning.  Almost everything is from farms in the countryside, within 100 miles:

Vegetables

Hot peppers

Red peppers

Parsley root

Celeriac

Carrots

Red peppers

Potatoes

Onions

Mushrooms*

Butternut squash

Squash

Tomatoes

Basil 

Parsley

Horseradish root (no idea what I will do with this, but I have never seen it sold fresh so I bought one)

Fruit

Blueberries (probably the last week for them)

Apples* (brought in from Italy)

Peaches (the very, very last from in-country)

Grapes (the harvest is in full swing)

Kiwi* (from somewhere far, far away)

*not local

I've posted our meal list on a sidebar, so you can see what we plan to cook.  All the root vegetables are for vegetable stock because I want to make my first fall soup this week.  (Never mind that it's still over 80 degrees outside.)
