Every changing season brings a new crop of fresh produce. Buying in-season fruits and vegetables often means supporting local farmers while reducing your carbon footprint. Since in-season produce is picked at the height of its freshness, it adds the best flavor and quality to your meals. Another benefit? Buying in-season can also help stretch your grocery budget further. Whether you buy your produce from a local farmer’s market or grocer, you simply cannot go wrong when shopping in season.
