Piggybacking on this week’s Food, Inc. review, I have found two comprehensive charts about seasonal fruits and vegetables that I thought I would share. Anyone who reads anything about eating healthy is told to buy seasonal produce, but if you’re anything like me, you don’t know exactly which food is in season at a given time. This list is great for keeping it all straight. Dark green indicates that a product can be found at the market, and is being harvested. Light green indicates that it can be found in the market but is not within its natural harvest season (possible through storage or hot house production). Did you know limes are not in season in the summer? Seems strange given that lots of summer cocktails include lime. These lists are in PDF from so that it’s easy for you to print and reference.

P.S. The updated site will hopefully be live next week. Waiting on a designer friend to wow me…I’m told it’s worth the wait. 🙂
