need is a free app.
We’ve taken full advantage of
this technology in the 2012 Farm
Fresh directory. Farm fresh food
isn’t always predictable—farmers’
products and hours are often im-
pacted by local growing conditions
among other factors. So we’ve tried
to link you directly to the most
current information about each
business.
Some businesses update Face-
book reguarly; others have an
established website. Whenever
possible, we have provided a code
that will link you to the most cur-
rent information about businesses
you are interested in.

ice cream scoop
2 cups fresh blueberries
1/2 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt
1/4 cup low-fat granola
Directions:
Peel bananas and cut in half
crosswise, then cut each piece in

1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
3 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks
1-1/2 cup red dinner wine

Money-saving tips:
• Mix it yourself. 100% juice from
frozen concentrate is often less
expensive per serving than
pre-bottled juice.
• Keep it simple. Buy dried beans,
peas, and lentils in their raw or
uncooked form instead of the
processed and packaged ver-
sions which cost more.
Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables for less
• To make many fresh fruits and
vegetables last longer, store
them in the refrigerator or
freezer soon after getting home
from your shopping trip. Many
cookbooks offer specifi c freez-
ing instructions.
• Clearly label your foods in the
freezer and refrigerator with the
contents and date to stay within
a safe time frame.
For more money-saving tips, visit the CDC’s website:
http://www.fruitsandveggiesmatter.gov/
View a full list of 30 tips,
or learn ways to eat
more fruits and veggies!
Finding the most economical way to buy fruits and veggies
Buy fresh: apples, peaches,
pears, blueberries, strawberries,
cherries, cabbage, potatoes,
broccoli, carrots, caulifl ower,
kale, sweet potatoes, spinach,
squash/zucchini , mangoes,
papayas, bananas
Buy frozen: raspberries, collard
greens, turnip greens, okra
Buy canned: green beans, toma-
toes, sweet corn, green peas,
asparagus
Buy dried: grapes (raisins),
apricots
Buy juced: grapefruit (frozen),
orange (frozen), pineapple,
prune (plums), tomato
