Growing up in the South, I always looked forward to seasonal apples, tomatoes, peaches, green beans, and zucchini. Today, it's artichokes, asparagus, and yummy yummy mangoes. It's easy to forget, sometimes, that in addition to being the most populous state in the union with the fifth largest economy in the world, and home to the technology and entertainment industries, that California is also the nation's largest agricultural producer and exporter, with an annual production of $26.7 billion. It's fresher here in all sorts of ways.
