KEEP THESE TIPS IN MIND WHEN USING AND SHOPPING FOR SEASONAL PRODUCE:
Fresh foods are often less expensive during their harvest season.
You may even save money by buying in bulk.
Shop at your local farmers market to learn more about produce and get ideas on how to prepare foods in season.
Gardening gives you fresh seasonal produce and a little exercise, too.
The sense of pride you’ll feel will make that produce taste even better!
Frozen, canned and dried fruits and vegetables also can be healthy choices. Compare food labels and choose items with the lowest amounts of sodium, added sugars and saturated fat.
Freeze fresh produce so you can add it to smoothies, soups, breads and more throughout the year.
