Flavours of The Month

We have access to a wide variety of products, offering an abundance of options to satisfy any taste. However, when it comes to choosing what to consume, it’s important to consider a few key factors.

Here are some great reasons to incorporate seasonal products into your diet:

• Your diet becomes more diverse: By choosing to eat fruits and vegetables in season, you’re introducing a variety of new products into your diet and frequently swapping them out. This helps ensure a wide and rich range of nutrients throughout the year.

• The quality and flavour of what you eat improve: Since seasonal products are harvested at their peak of ripeness, they are fresher and taste better.

• Your body gets exactly what it needs: Seasonal products are not just nutritious; they contain the nutrients our bodies require at different times of the year. For example, summer fruits and vegetables are richer in minerals to help keep us hydrated, while winter produce contains more vitamin C to strengthen our immune system when we need it most.

• You save money: When fruits and vegetables are in season, production costs are generally lower, making them more affordable for both producers and consumers. If you buy seasonal, locally grown products, you save money and support the local economy in one go!

• It’s an environmentally sustainable choice: When a product is grown in harmony with its season, it is better suited to the environmental conditions it’s exposed to. This allows for more efficient use of natural resources like water and is less likely to require pesticides. By buying seasonal products, you’re also making a choice that helps protect biodiversity!
