Hi, I’m planning on cooking a big feast for family and friends and when I invite people to come over, I enjoy using local and seasonal ingredients.
From pumpkin salads to veggies stews, sweet potato chips and other locally grown delicacies!
I encourage everyone for this Thanksgiving to use at least half of local products to cook their feast!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
