From now until October (maybe a little later in the southern third of the state), Mississippi roadsides will be peppered with local fruit and vegetable stands. Many of them also sell home-canned goods such as pickles, jellies and sauces. If you happen to be on your way somewhere you'll return from soon and see one of these, stop and find out what they have. Most of the time, they'll tell you what's best and how they cook it. They're good people, you'll have fun stopping by and you're bound bring home something wonderful.
