My goodies from the Farmer's Market today...

It feels a little like fall today, cool and crisp - a perfect time to enjoy our local farmer's market and summer's final offerings.

Look at these beautiful mushrooms, various types of squash, and apples from Blue Ridge, Georgia. I love meeting the farmers that grow them - it seems to make the meal a little more special.  It gives me a sense of connection to the earth and community we live in and a reminder of how grateful I am.

I always find something new that I can't wait to enjoy and share with you. It feels good to support local businesses and entrepreneurs that have created their own products. Today, I met Natalie with Yae Organics and bought Yae Organic Wheat Grass. In the past I have attempted to grow wheat grass at home, but with little success. This product is dried into a powder that is virtually identical to juiced wheatgrass yet is much easier to prepare.

Per serving it has: 

  • 328% vitamin K   (essential to building strong bones and preventing heart disease)
  • 129mg chlorophyll   (a superfood due to its nutritional and potent antioxidant properties)
  • 3503% B12   (helps in healthy regulation of the nervous system, reducing depression, stress, brain shrinkage and fatigue. It also helps maintain a healthy digestive system and protects against heart disease)

Put one scoop in your next smoothie and enjoy!
