Even though it has been a very rainy summer in New Hampshire, with some crops suffering due to the excess rain, business is booming at New Hampshire farm stands. With the economy in the state that it is, it is great to hear that business is going well in some niches... yay for New Hampshire locavores! -Karen

This piece tells us the about the struggles one Nova Scotia community is encountering in getting large grocery stores to carry produce from local farmers.

 I'm absolutely nuts over Aviator Nation clothing. They have the softest, coolest vintage-reproduction clothing you can imagine. I have a pair of their striped sweatshorts, and I would wear them every day if I could. (Some people may claim I do!)
They even have sewing machines from the 60's and 70's in their LA manufacturing plant so that the stitchwork is done in a vintage manner as well. -Karen
