Roadside fruit stands, farmers markets, a raw milk drive-thru, espresso stands on corners even in the most rural towns, mountains, ocean.

Washington is a food and nature lovers paradise.

At least in the summer.

 Getting food this week has been a fun adventure!

There has been an abundance of Rainer cherries and berries galore.

We even found green tomatoes so I can make one of our favorite summer recipes, fried green tomatoes.

After leaving the farmers market we saw a sign for raw milk.

We haven’t bought raw milk since we lived in CA because, while I’m all for raw milk, I’m a little cautious.

We decided to check it out and drove up to a window where the girl told us about the raw milk and the farm’s testing procedures.

So we bought some.

It was expensive but I love to support local farmers when we can.

Especially a farmer who I would consider a freedom fighter.

To top off a wonderful week of food experiences, we bought our eggs from a nearby help-yourself egg stand.

 We  bought the last of the eggs and had the responsibility of following the directions to turn the “sold out” sign around.

However, I can’t say much about my gym this week.

Our campsites have been pretty blah and I didn’t take out the time to search out any beautiful places to workout. I just got it done wherever we were parked.

Any interesting food discoveries in your area? Do you have a farmers market near you? How do you feel about raw milk?

Hugs and High Fives,
Jenn
