Season’s Eatings
Lettuce, berries and other fresh produce are standard fare at local farmers markets, but don’t forget to look for other goodies like mushrooms, flower bouquets, piquant cheeses, meat, soaps and herbs.
If you get Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) assistance, you can use your EBT card to buy most food items. Check at the information table for assistance. Find a list of local farmers markets at northeastohioboomer.com.
Meet Our (NOT-SO) CRANKY WINNER
Gerry Uffman isn’t cranky, he just looks like he is. The friendly, selfdescribed “people person” is the winner of our Crankshaft Lookalike Contest. The Parma Heights resident gets an autographed book, “Strike Four!” by Tom Batiuk and Chuck Ayers.
Batiuk, featured in our March/ April issue, created the cranky and popular “Crankshaft” comic strip character and generously donated the book.
Crankshaft, as fans know, drives a school bus. Uffman just so happens to be a retired school bus driver.
Congratulations, Gerry!
