My daughter convinced me to enter a photo in the Snap Local, Snap Fresh online contest. Designed to encourage and support the local food movement, winners will receive prizes from the NY Wine & Culinary Center in Canandaigua — a very cool place.

This is asparagus grown in my garden. I’ve had a bed for decades now. Had to move it once when some construction was taking place, and may have to move it again due to my own poor planning for trees growing, but I love fresh asparagus, so it’s worth the work.

You can vote for my picture here, and visit Amanda’s site to get the links to her pix.

I hope to get a few more pictures during my travels this weekend — we’ll see how that works out.

Your turn: what’s your favorite local food?
