Keep It In Season!
One big advantage of summer eating is the fantastic, local produce that comes with the season. Whether it’s strawberries and asparagus in early summer, peaches and corn in August, or apples and squash when the colors are turning (I know, who wants to think about fall right now?), getting into seasonal eating not only adds quality of your diet, but also makes good sense environmentally. Teaching your kids about the foods of each season is also a good way to impart a healthy respect for our food system, and the rich flavors that come from local, seasonal foods might help reduce everyone’s desire to snack on pre-packaged, lower quality foods. |
