Springtime Nutrition!

Spring and summer are great months to visit your local farmer's market to check out local produce. Choosing fruits and vegetables that are in season is a great way to stretch food dollars. Many fruits and vegetables are available canned, frozen, or dried all year long, but while in season they are fresh and in abundance!
