My dad and I made a trip to Farmers Market this morning, and I again realized how blessed and "lucky" we are here in York County.
While we were there, a gentleman, presumably the owner from the Blue Heron Restaurant, was buying fresh produce, some of it literally straight from the farm this morning. He was known by name so he's obviously a regular. I know that the proprietors of Bistro 19 also buy local fresh farm produce, as I'm sure many others from small local establishments do.
There are things wrong with York yes, as in any place. But here, we are lucky enough to have local restaurants where the food is fresh, high quality and also supports our own community. There are plenty, especially downtown, to choose from.
It's very easy for us, being used to have so much wonderful local food, to sometimes take it fo granted. We definitely shouldn't. We are very very lucky.
