This month's notes: August 2008: Blueberries are here all parts of the U.S. Peaches are here! Don't miss them! Blackberries are gone in the South but are still going strong in the north. Apples are coming soon! Find a blueberry festival, peach festival or apple festival near you! Organic farms are still not common, but any that are, have the word ORGANIC by their name!
