“Pin” it to Pinterest and don’t lose this information!
If you have been a reader of our’s long, you will know that produce is at the very top of our shopping list every week! In fact, it is sometimes the only thing on our shopping list as we have many of the other foods in our pantry and freezer and love to fill in the food gaps with fresh produce and spend our budget on the fresh, healthy, yumminess!
Some time, you will need to see our thrifty homemaking class called “Building Your Thrifty Home” to see how we operate things each week to have a full, healthy and complete menu in the midst of the homemaking! This is our most popular workshop/class/topic that we speak on!
But anyway, back on track here to talk about produce. We have now made an easy spot for you to locate all of our produce savings tips, preserving tips, recipes, seasonal picks and everything else related to produce on one page. You can always find this page at TheThriftyCouple.com/ProduceSavings. We recommend bookmarking this page, or remember to check it often. It is found under the “In the Kitchen” tab on our home page.
For the life of our site, whenever we have something new to post about produce, it will be located under one of the links on this page. So it will be added to quite often when we write a blog post about it!
This is a new page for your reference so that you don’t have to fish all over our site for anything related to produce! But since we are debuting this new permanent spot for produce savings, we thought we would share the current links in this post for you so that you can see what all the produce buzz is about right now!
