love the color ;)

Kale and Chard...amazing! look how fresh and green!!

i'm not sure what this is either, but it's also super pretty...love the color gradation!
So just like in my pigs post, i went to see my aunt who is also a farmer. She was doing a farmer's market and let us hang out for a bit and get some amazing organic veggies. We got probably one or more of each! You haven't tasted anything until you've tasted her stuff...it tastes so good.
so these pictures are of that
It really is sad though because their farm uses this really cool plastic for irrigation that biodegrades! and the other plastic they were using was filling up 4 dumpsters! So when they switched to this, the law says that you have to remove the plastic monthly and this plastic dissolved within 2 weeks.
So unfortunately, their organic certification was revoked but they still use the same practices which means they are organic and local, but they just aren't legally referred to as organic.
So i love food and so going to a market like this is nice because you get good food, and honestly, it's pretty too!
Happy Yom Kippur!
