Phrases like "farm to fork" and "farm to table" are really trendy but only reinforce something that was once the norm during meal time. Eating what was fresh and in- season. Today on Deep South Dining we take a look at what is in-season with Robby Sullivan of the Mississippi Farmers Market (Jackson, MS) and talk with cookbook author Sheri Castle, who Carol calls the queen of vegetables. Also we hear from Robert St. John about the non-romantic side of growing your own produce.

This gorgeous summer salad showcases peak-season tomatoes, fresh herbs, and lady peas, which remain creamy white or light green even after they have been cooked. A tangy vinaigrette brings all of these ingredients together to make one tasty dish. This salad is best served at room temperature immediately after it has been made, but you can cook the field peas in advance and store them in the refrigerator.
