Hi, there, Lisa! I'm so glad to have you here - and it's true that buying local is the way to go for freshness and health, I think. You might want to try http://www.localharvest.org/ as a start - maybe there are some farmers' markets in your area! WELCOME!!!

XOXO, Libbie

Welcome Lisa! I love it up by you. We go to the Chicago Botanical Garden all the time. Can you recommend some fun family things for us to do in Winthrop Harbor?
