I can’t believe it’s already April tomorrow? 🌼 I am SO excited for outdoor farmers markets and warm weather! ☀️🍓
Comment your fave below or what you are excited to make with it!
Why it’s beneficial to eat seasonally:
-Seasonal food is fresher! The average piece of produce at the store has traveled 1000 miles to get to you. If you shop locally and seasonally, the produce was picked more recently.
-It can save money! Fruits and vegetables that are in season tend to be cheaper.
-Locally-sourced seasonal produce can be healthier because anti-oxidants decline when stored for long periods of time. Grocery stores also add preservatives to extend the shelf life 👀
-Eating with the seasons can help support what our bodies need during that time period!
-Seasonal food is more flavorful!
-It can help you get creative in the kitchen and experiment with foods you may not have cooked with before.
-Eating seasonally is also more environmentally-friendly! Eating in season can reduce the demand for out of season produce which helps to support your local farming.
My favorite ways to eat seasonally AND locally are to shop at local farmers markets or participate in a CSA! Get ready for some seasonal recipes this month 🍊
