I’m spending the week on the North Shore of MA, and have been blown away by the vibrant local food scene, and availability of many wonderful locally grown foods from grains to produce to meat. Some of my favorite visits have included Tendercrop Farm in Newbury, Russell Orchards in Ipswich, and the Marblehead Farmer’s Market in Marblehead. New England is a good place to eat!
