The Benefits of Seasonal Produce

Written by Jessica F | Jul 15, 2022 7:15:00 PM

In today’s supermarket, it’s normal to see the same produce available year-round. However, that doesn’t mean the quality always remains the same. Eating seasonally means you are simply taking advantage of the harvest schedule and enjoying fully mature produce at the peak of its growing season. Seasonal eating can also help encourage you to eat more fruits and vegetables daily.

The next time you’re grocery shopping, consider choosing seasonally fresh options to give your body a nutritional boost and impress your palate. This month, consider buying the following in-season products:

  • Berries (e.g., blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries)
  • Corn
  • Cucumbers
  • Nectarines
  • Peaches
  • Tomatoes
