If You Like Fresh Farm Vegetables They're Ready!

Linda Selecting Tomatoes At Smiley Produce In Ridgetop, TN

Nothing tastes better that fresh vegetables right out of the field.  They're here in abundance right now.  We visited Smiley Produce, Highway 431, Ridgetop, TN, today and brought home tomatoes, red and green bell peppers, green and yellow zucchini, cucumbers, egg plant, kale, green beans, and cabbage.  

Linda got a recipe for kale chips from a friend, and she's going to try to make some today.  I'll take a picture and post it along with the recipe, assuming it turns out.

We're not fond of kale in salads, but to give the illusion of being cool, we're going venture into kale, which is now the "in" health food.

If you live in Middle Tennessee you may be familiar with Smiley Farms as an event center in Ridgetop.  But Smiley Farms grows almost every kind of vegetable on their huge farm.  You can find their produce in the Nashville Farmers Market on 8th Avenue North and at Smiley Produce in Ridgetop.  They may have other outlets, but I don't know any.

Look for farmers' markets near you, because it harvest time in the South.
