Visit Kitsap Harbor Festival this Weekend!

The weathers looks a little dismal, but don't let it stop you from visiting the Kitsap Harbor Festival in Port Orchard and Bremerton.

There are enough activities planned to keep the whole family busy. You can visit an authentic steamship, walk through the Port Orchard Farmers Market, stop for a drink at the Beer Gardens, and much more.

Looking for Healthy Food in Bremerton?

Well, it looks like I'll keep playing on the healthy eating theme this week.

Early this week, I was walking down 4th street in Bremerton. I walked past a store front advertising organic, fresh, and local produce. I just had to stop in and take a look.

Freshlocal has locally sourced vegetables, grains, honey (and much more!) as well as orangic pre-packaged foods. They also had freshly prepared sandwiches, soups and other kinds of goodies for lunch.

Definitely a good place to stop at if you taking a stroll in downtown Bremerton. I'll probably be heading down there to try their lunch specials soon!

Support Your Local Farms in Kitsap County

Growing a bountiful garden has always been one of my dreams. There is nothing tastier or more soul-satisfying than enjoying home grown tomatoes, beans, or zucchini after tending them all summer.

Sadly, I live in a shady area with poor soil. The only thing that grows well is the moss taking over my lawn. If the poor soil or lack of sunlight doesn't get to my plants, the deer will. I have given up on trying to grow anything edible until I move to a better location.

In the mean time, I like to visit the farmers market for local produce. This year I purchased a "subscription" to a local farm. I pay in full ahead of time and once I week I pick up my share of vegetables from the farm. Needless to say, I am really looking forward to the first pickup on June 1st.

If you'd like more information about this program visit Abundantly Green's website. Eating local is good for you, the environment and your community.
