We make an effort to eat and purchase locally three seasons a year, but during the winter it would be slim pickings. I’m so grateful that one of the best grocery chains in the United States makes its home in Rochester. The flagship store is Pittsford is actually a tourist destination, and it’s my go-to grocery store along with Trader Joe’s. I had a couple things in mind for SNAP this week, but after several gray, snowy days here, when I walked into Wegman’s this morning I knew right away I wanted to feature the bright colors of the produce.
At least half, maybe more, of my grocery cart each week is produce (except in the summer when I shop at the local farmers’ markets). It’s not inexpensive, but I figure it’s part of our health plan! Linking to Helena’s meme SNAP, and off to see what other finds folks have made this week.
Lovely, bright photos and as always beautifully presented for the meme. I need to work out the best way of doing collages like this one.
Great pics….we are so lucky to have so much locally grown fresh produce here xx
Lovely and colourful, you are lucky to be able to get it locally.
Pretty photos! A great set for this week!
Lovely bright colours. I bet they taste good.
I’m with you on finding something cheery. It has been so dull of late, even midday it’s dark – makes for horrible conditions taking photos outside. No odd looks for staff at the grocery store? I have often wanted to be brave enough to snap away …
yes beautiful colours and plenty of vitamin C for the grey days
A very tempting selection
Love the variation in shape, color and texture.
We eat lots of produce and enjoy getting a weekly produce box delivered from a local farm for about six months of the year. Healthy food is definitely cheaper (and better) than poor health.

Great shots Karen! My grocery basket is largely produce and meats with a few other odds and ends tossed in. Some weeks I can’t believe how little I get for my money… but it is still cheaper (and healthier) than eating out all the time.
beautiful photos…I wish we had a store near-by that had such good quality foods.
We have Wegman’s now in the DC metro area – not the city itself – and I do think the produce is among the best of all the chains…which your SNAP photos ably support and showcase. Eat on and enjoy!
Cheers~
Such wonderfully happy colors & healthy eats!
Oh yes produce is definitely part of our health plan here. Agreeing that there are slim pickings of home grown local produce at the moment.
