These seasonal shopping guides are a way to demystify seasonal eating. Often times what’s in season is more abundant, more fresh and nutrient dense, more environmentally sustainable, and more cost-effective. I hope these lists, which are not all encompassing and will change region to region, inspire you to craft your seasonal meals and menus so you too can sync up to the natural rhythms in your environment!
Autumn in Southern Ontario is from approximately August through September but of course that changes day by day, year by year!
Let me know how it goes for you!
