Fresh farm stand produce tastes even better after you pedal it home. (MARTY BASCH PHOTO)

It’s easy this time of year finding newly picked produce around the valley. Farm stands, whether it be the results of work from full-time farmers or backyard hobbyist gardeners, abound on many backroads that also happen to be favored cycling lanes.

There certainly are valley stalwarts and markets but mom and pop farm stands also sprout up along the winding roads with garden-fresh cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes, corn, beans, peppers, zucchinis, beets and more.
