Coming late to the farmer’s market is like coming late to the party - most of the guests have left, the ice sculpture has melted and only a few wilted hors d’oeuvres remain on the platters. If you want to get the best of the bounty, arrive early and bring a tote bag or a backpack to carry your finds, which leaves your hands free to sample! You don’t want to be the one tussling over the very last stalk of rhubarb and making a scene…it’s just that you needed it for your strawberry and rhubarb pie!

A food allergy is an immune system response to a food that the body mistakenly believes is harmful. Once the immune system decides that a particular food is harmful, it creates specific antibodies to fight it. The next time the individual eats that food, the immune system releases massive amounts of chemicals, including histamine, to protect the body. These chemicals trigger allergic symptoms that can affect the respiratory system, gastrointestinal tract, skin, and/or cardiovascular system. Some reactions can be deadly.
