Spring brings with it the anticipation of fresh vegetables and fresh fruits, either from your own garden or from the weekly farmers’ market down the road.

A cool helping of coleslaw complements barbecued hamburgers and franks, and corn relish adds to a backyard feast or a festive picnic. Gelatins add flavor to different types of jellies and jams, so take your pick. There’s even a recipe to help you put a dent in that mountain of zucchini that has you leaving baskets of the vegetable on people’s porches. And if you have jujube trees, the fruit makes a wonderful snack and adds to special treats straight from your kitchen.

Enjoy the warm weather, and may the best of nature’s flavors find their way to your table.
