All Local Lunch

On Sunday, 5/31, I achieved one of my goals of an all local lunch.

I went with friends to the Whole Foods Cherry Creek, Denver, CO. At many Whole Foods stores, local products are marked with tags in store, and I picked up Colorado tomaotes from Honeyacre, in Wiggins, CO, as well as a spinach asiago dip from a Denver company, Wild Thymes. Also, in the store were spelt crackers made by Nita Crisp in Fort Collins, CO.

On the way back from Whole Foods, we discovered that the City Park Esplanade Farmers' Market had opened for the season. I stopped in and picked up salsa, red leaf lettuce, orange peppers, and radishes from White Girl Salsa, McCurry Farms, and Full Circle Farms. The radishes from Full Circle were some of best I'd ever had.

All of these items became my locavore lunch plate, and they were delicious!
