With so many varieties of produce available to us now, we often don't stop and think whether it is best for our bodies to be eating them when we do. Our bodies need more or less of different nutrients in different seasons of the year and those nutrients come from the foods we eat.
In this section you will find a list of which types of produce are in season during which months of the year. You will find that in season vegetables and fruits are also the least expensive in the grocery store because they are in greater abundance when in season. I like to wait until the produce has been in the store a couple of weeks. Then I know I am getting ripe foods at a great price.
The list I have on here was created from the http://localfoods.about.com/od/searchbystate/a/utahseasons.htm
website. It includes most foods available in all areas, highlighting foods specific to the mountain states. For a look at your own state's seasonal foods, check out the website and look under your own state.
