Discovering Thibert Farm’s pancake mix has been the highlight of the new Downtown Farmer’s Market for me. Check them out at the old bus station every Saturday — or take a trip out to The Thibert Farm in Comber.

Take a daytrip to Leamington, Ontario. If you’re coming from Windsor, just hop on Huron Church Rd and follow it after it becomes Highway 3. In about 40 minutes you’ll see signs to turn south into Leamington’s downtown. Stock up on local produce before turning around and heading home. One of my favourite shops is Lakeside Bakery on Erie Street near Seacliff Drive.

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy!! It’s apple picking time. I love this time of year. Not only do I love apples, apple pie, apple crisp, and apple cider, this year I have a child who loves to bake. I’ll get to enjoy all the great dishes and pass on my favourite recipes.

When my kids were little they had special sweaters to wear for apple picking. You guessed it, we called them “apple picking sweaters.” They were hand knitted (usually second hand) and all the leaves on the ground would stick in the stitches because invariably they’d roll around in the grass under the trees. I hope we make time to get out to the orchard this year. Local food is the best.

Leave a link to your favourite orchard (or orchard memory) in the comments!

The website says they’ll be open weekends until November 2 from 10am to 6pm. I’m hoping more farmers will decide to sell their produce here.

If you live in Windsor or Essex County you probably have peppers and beans. The unusually cool weather and plenty of rain means we’ve had an incredible growing season for lettuces too.

I’ve been getting broccoli out of the garden for about 2 weeks now. The chili peppers have babies on them and there are flowers on the beans. Food tastes so good with fresh veggies from the backyard. This is me making vegetarian chili.

That was a long time ago. It’s nice to see that some things last.
