Cooler nights, clear afternoons and shorter days mean that autumn is around the corner, officially. Here on the Central Coast it is still a good time for produce. Because of the variety of vegetables and produce we grow they are still quite fresh and tasty. If you lived elsewhere the situation would be different. So take advantage of this wonderful place and check out a Market. The friendly vendors and great selection will have you coming back, often.
