What’s in season this September at your local farmers’ market?
With all the sunshine from the summer, the start of Fall brings us British Columbians a bountiful selection of foods. The folks at We Heart Local BC launched the We Heart Local awards in August and we discovered new places to find local; such as Nature’s Pickin’s and Golden Ears Cheese Crafters. Here is a list of some local foods – see if any of these BC-grown products are at your local grocer.
