Eating local can be hard in the winter time if you live in a colder climate like we do. I tried canning a few years ago and well...it didn't work out too well. I must try it again though. Fruits I freeze and then use for smoothies throughout the winter.
What do you do to ensure you continue to eat local and organic food throughout the months where these foods are not readily available to you? Add your tip or tips below!
We just signed up for a CSA that actually runs during winter! Our last one (in Pennsylvania) stopped in about November.
ReplyDeleteIn our last box we got a few winter squash, collards, sweet potatoes, lettuce, and eggs.
