anybody use them? During the season I buy 100% of my veggies (especially corn) from them. some of my fondest memories of weekend vacations whether w/my family, girlfriends or biker friends usually meant a stop or two to the roadside stand. now of course as I live in the country (tourist country too) it's a weekly ritual for the duration of the season.
Today I lucked out while waiting for a friend in a strip mall parking lot, I spotted a red pickup truck loaded with sweet corn and being tended by two tall slim strawberry blonds who were obviously sisters if not twins, but I digress... so 6 ears for $2.00 but as they always throw in extra @ these stands I got 7, not only is this corn as sweet as candy but the ears are just huge.
these gals only had corn but the two stands I usually buy from have a full run of local produce like tomatoes, beans, peas, berries, squash, melon etc & all of it being top shelf imo, very worthy of being plated in high end restaurants.
aside from sweet corn that I love so much I really find the acorn squash here fantastic.
so how many members here go to (even occasionally) roadside stands and what are your experiences.
