I got a cucumber for 50 cents<br />Bananas-These are 49 cents a pound at the farmer's market and about 75 cents at the store<br />Butter (real)-$3 a pound at the amish farm, but at least $4 a box at the grocery store<br />Avocados-no clue :-)<br /><br />We have changed our eating and now only get things directly from the farmers or we live without it. We plan to have 6 raised garden beds this summer to grow as much as I can myself and then canning what I can for the winter months.<br /><br />Kelly<br />mysimplewalk.comLunahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07903963815757963397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697301816288959111.post-31789605171919815152012-01-18T05:31:27.215-08:002012-01-18T05:31:27.215-08:00Thanks Mad Dog.
