Ripe for the Picking

Area gardens and farms are bursting with vegetables and flowers, one of the best features of a Southeastern Ohio summer. Off-road trails have been in excellent shape lately, and if you can avoid the tar & gravel projects around the county there is good road riding to be had as well. Don't let summer pass you by -- get out and ride. And by all means, eat some local produce!
