Over the last few months, I've been checking to see what is available in the way of local produce when I do the grocery shopping. There wasn't much over the winter, but the list is slowly starting to grow. Here's what I found at Green Fields Market yesterday:
Spring-dug parsnips, mesclun, cilantro, spinach, several kinds of sprouts, and apples (from Dummerston VT).
Last weekend, I also saw arugula, radishes, carrots, turnips, celeriac, and sunchokes. The local stuff tends to go quickly, so what I see on any given shopping trip is just a snapshot. Still, it looks like from last week to this week, the root vegetables might be petering out, while more early spring foods are coming in.
