Inside the Governor's Picnic for Maryland Buy Local Week


Gov. Martin O'Malley and Sen. Mike Miller - Tamar Alexia Fleishman

Well, it was quite the honor to be one of the inside Maryland foodies to get invited to Governor Martin O'Malley's Picnic in honor of Maryland Buy Local Week.

Winners of a recipe competition using Maryland food products got to present their creations for our sampling delight. There were so many goodies, it was impossible to try everything! Here's a list of winners:

It was a warm and sunny day; the paper fans being carried (and truly used) by all the ladies added an  antebellum touch to the afternoon on Government House's lawn.

There was beef, goat, crab, rockfish, cheese, veggies, fruits, fruit juices, wines, Sangria, ice cream, and more. The Governor asked that all Marylanders make at least one meal a day that incorporates Maryland ingredients. It's better for us, it's greener, and it's tastier. Give it a try! Here's a list of Maryland's Best locally grown food:
