Eating Seasonally: Fall Edition
As the cooler weather creeps in, the beautiful rich colors of the leaves start transitioning from greens to vibrant reds, oranges, and yellows, we are ready to enjoy Fall yall! With the landscape changing around us, it’s also a great time to start asking what produce is in season right now? And why should we even eat things that are in season?
Eating produce that’s in season is not only a way to help support your local farmers and growers, the local economy, and gives great insight into where your food actually comes from but it’s also incredibly supportive for your body as it gears up for the transitioning seasons as well. Not to mention consuming in-season, local produce guarantees shorter travel distances from farm to your table making for the freshest, tastiest foods and ensuring the most nutrients for your body.
So what should we try incorporating on our plates during this time?
