Produce: June is Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month
June is fresh fruit and vegetable month. It is the best time to celebrate fruits and vegetables because grocery stores, farmer’s markets and road-side produce stands are filling up with an abundance of seasonal favorites like tomatoes, melons, strawberries, lettuce and squash.Challenge you and your family to a mystery basket dinner. Bring out a basket of fresh vegetables and challenge everyone in your house to help think of ways to make them into dinner.It might help to get a head start and get them thinking a few days in advance - why not assign one or two items per person?
