Twiehoff Gardens along St. Paul Road in Faribault offers an abundance of fresh produce.
THERE’S SOMETHING ABOUT BUYING directly from the grower that appeals to my rural roots. I relish the taste of vegetables grown in Minnesota soil.
And right here in Faribault, we’re blessed to have a terrific Farmers’ Market, apple orchards and Twiehoff Gardens. (See my previous post on Twiehoffs.)
No matter where you live, take time this fall to buy fresh, buy local. Savor the delectable tastes and the visual appeal of just-harvested fruits and vegetables.
And to tempt you, here are some of the offerings at Twiehoff Gardens.
Pumpkin season is just beginning at Twiehoffs. By late fall, wagons will brim with all sizes of pumpkins.
While sweet corn season is about over at Twiehoffs, corn is typically a hot summertime commodity.
Twiehoff Gardens sells spices and other products from Winona, Minnesota- based Watkins.
Fresh red potatoes are popular with shoppers.
Jalapenos, with an "h" or a "j," who cares, are available.

Thanks for sharing the wedding photos and the rest of your blog. I rarely get a chance to sit down and browse the internet but when you include the link in your e-mail I can’t resist. Your photos continue to be excellent. Digital, or 35 mm you seem to have the talent.
Thank you for your kind words, Annette. Digital photography has allowed me to be more creative because I’m not worried about how much film I’m using. It’s the way I go. And the more I do photography, the more I learn and grow. Wait until you see the images I took of that sweet little flower girl. Check back later this week for another wedding blog.
