There's an Amish community close to where I live. There are miles and miles of farms with roadside stands, a bulk foods store and even several nurseries.
But there is one Amish family who brings their produce into town to sell during the summer. And I can't wait for them to return to town. Every year I swear to myself that I am going to buy my produce from them - it's organic and delicious, not to mention affordable. But what have I done in past years? Told myself "it's too out of the way" (it's not), "it's a pain in the ass going to another place just for produce" (it wouldn't be), and "what am I going to do with all the kids- mine and daycare kids - while I go produce shopping?" (take them with me and teach them about fruits, vegetables, and farming!).
So this year, I vow that I will buy farm fresh and I can't wait!! I plan on buying approximately three gazillion cantaloupes from them.

I just want to take a moment to pimp out my other (new) blog. It's all about being a mom and the guilt that goes along with it. It's me doing the best I can as a mom, with the confessions to prove it. Please take a moment to check it out, and if you like it, consider following it. Confessions Of A Momma
