The feature story this week is on the "greening" of Chicago, with farmers' markets returning to new locations with sustainable produce. The Tribune shares some tips for shopping at the farmers' market, as well as recipes from cookbooks that focus on market fresh produce: Scallops with three peas and prosciutto from Blue Eggs and Yellow Tomatoes, Savory mashed potatoes with garden herbs from Rosalind Creasy's Recipes from the Garden, Butter Lettuce Salad from Fresh, and Watercress, snow pea and shiitake mushroom stir-fry from The Farm to Table Cookbook: The Art of Eating Locally.Food prices are rising, so shop smartly at the grocery store, and take a hint from the Leftover Queen.

I love the Chicago farmers market. I look forward to it every year and miss it when it's over for the season. It snuck up on me this year. Can't wait to go out Sat. morning to see what they have.
