Vegetables
You don't have to be a farmer to know that you can find vegetables at every farmers market and CSA throughout the year. However, if you sight a special heirloom variety or a farmer offering a notably diverse number of veggies, or simply a farm that offers something that you think really stands out let me know! Email me at locavore@localfork.com and I will feature that farm in The Guide.
For commonly available fruits and vegetables, see the Seasonal Guide to the Northeast. Most seasonal produce is available at farmers markets in the city year round.
