From Booklist
With the approach of spring, people begin hungering for fresh, locally grown produce. The farmers' market, a staple of nineteenth-century life, has begun to reappear in America's urban centers so that city dwellers have better access to fresh foods. Two companion volumes, Bridget Jones' Farmers' Market Guide to Vegeta bles and Jenni Fleetwood's Farmers' Market Guide to Fruit , offer advice on what to look for and how to choose the best market products. Recipes accompany each entry. These are comprehensive volumes, and not every listed fruit or vegetable will appear in every local market, but they are useful to help the consumer make intelligent selections in supermarkets, too.
