Spring is here! The garden-minded among us rejoice, finding more and more time to dig in the dirt and dream about backyard harvests. But even for those without a space to plant or a green thumb (me!), spring can still be about garden-fresh fruits and veggies. Produce just tastes better in season. Don’t believe me? Buy a watermelon in the middle of the winter.
