Michigan’s Produce
You’ve seen plenty of reruns of Home Improvement on your Michigan Direct TV and you’ve been drawn in by those Travel Michigan commercials – it’s time for a trip! This is a great time of year to go and the nice thing about Michigan is that they grow all types of produce, check out our favorites:
Asparagus – Did you know that Michigan grows more asparagus than any other state in the union? That’s right, those green, delicious, healthy veggies are plentiful and CHEAP here so head to a Detroit restaurant and get some green.
Cherries – Michigan’s climate is perfect for growing lush, juicy cherries which is why they’re in just about everything here. A topping for fish, a great spread for bread and even baked into pies and baked goods – they’re all about cherries here.
Cranberries – Much like cherries, the climate is great for growing cranberries here. Cranberry juice is a great way to get some essential vitamins and taste the tartness that put Michigan on the map? If you’ve got some time and you’re curious take a trip to a bog, too!
