Find local growers or Farmers Markets
If you don't have the time or space to plant your own food, then buy from someone elses garden. Most people plant more than they can eat fresh, freeze or can. When you see a garden at someones house, pull in the drive way and tell them you'd like to buy food as it's harvested.
TIP: If you don't want to spend money on the food, barter your gardening work for food. They would probably love the extra help!
