Local Fruit and Veggie Stands

Out and about this weekend, I noticed more and more fruit and vegetable stands.  And, of couurse, I pulled over to every single one of them.

If you've never bought produce from one of these before, then you're missing out on how much more flavorful a tomato, a red pepper, or an apple can taste compared to produce that's been sitting in the store's for a while after their long journey across country (and sometimes across the globe).  It makes you wonder, if the flavor is mostly gone from the long-distance, store-bought variety, then what about the nutritional value?
