There are only a couple of weeks left until the beginning of summer. Spring brought us a lot of rain this year, which may make some of us feel blue, but the plants love it! If you’d like to come show your support for the local farmers of New Jersey (or are just bored looking at all the same food items at the supermarket) visit one of the several farmers markets in Monmouth County! Most of them are open once a week throughout the summer. Along with fresh fruits and vegetables, farmers markets often offer eggs, meat, cheese, baked goods, pickled and canned goods, jams, flowers, honey and lots of other items.

Your friends at LG Insurance hope you’ll get out there and enjoy the (almost) summer weather, meet some new friends, support local farmers and try some of the great natural foods grown or prepared right here in New Jersey!
