Buying produce in season is good for your wallet, good for your body, and good for the planet.

"Vegetables are too expensive."

Vegetables at a farmers' market

"Vegetables are too expensive."

  • Seasonal produce is fresher, tastier and more nutritious than food grown out of season.

  • Fruits and vegetables that are locally grown support the environment and local farmers. They are also picked at their peak ripeness and are full of flavor!

  • When a fruit or vegetable is in season, it is often available at a low price.

  • Visit a local farmers' market to explore seasonal fruits and vegetables.
