Autumn brings us together, and there’s no better way to celebrate the season than with locally grown foods from San Mateo County’s coast. This abundant region is rich with the fall’s best crops — think hearty Brussels sprouts, flavorful leeks, and sweet carrots — all thriving in the misty coastal climate. Whether dining solo or gathering with loved ones, the season’s bounty will add color and depth to your plate.

For inspiration, check out our recipe book featuring soups, sides, and sweets with ingredients from POST-protected farms. Each recipe is a tribute to local farmers committed to preserving sustainable agriculture on the coast.
