Before galloping off to get my hair cut, I went with my good friend Petrice to this awesome thing Logan does every Saturday called The Bountiful Basket. Basically what it is is a parking lot where all this fresh produce (all the surplus that local farmers couldn’t sell to stores) is gathered up into white …
