Cool weather crops

There's no need to head back to the grocery store just yet. There are plenty of local farms either with harvested veggies or still producing late season crops. And many of these foods I actually prefer to those so abundant during the warmer months. Wonderful winter squash, for instance, can be prepared sweet (complemented with flavors of cinnamon, brown sugar, maple syrup, dried fruit and nuts) or savory (combined with cheese, sage, leeks, mushrooms and onions).
