We have lived in the Yakima Valley for over thirty years, raised our kids here, worked here, worshipped here, played here, volunteered here, and now retired here. It's a good place to live.
I plan to visit the various small towns of the valley--and even Yakima itself sometimes--to share a glimpse of what is good and what is problematical here.
I am a Grandma blogger, posting some regular stuff on some regular blogs--photos and memes. Most recently I have primarily participated in a weekly header challenge, but hopefully I will get back to more regular blogging again.
...where I keep all sorts of things including excursions outside the Valley and the host posts of Odd Shots on Mondays.

Local Produce--and some not so local
Produce stands throughout the Valley offer fresh local vegetables and fruits in season. Papayas, however, are not local, so obviously they get some items from out of the area.
Oh how I love fresh corn on the cob! Grew up with it each summer and it sure tasted good after all that work in the garden producing it! When I lived in upstate New York and had a huge garden, I had many rows of corn AND 36 tomato plants! Those were the days of good tasting fresh veggies!
