Your Guide to Fresh Fall Produce

Seasonal produce is one notary characteristic of what makes the fall months so fantastic.  Pumpkin and apples are just two foods that are most commonly celebrated at this time of year, but we can’t forget about the abundance of delicious greens like lettuce and cabbage or the colored variety of squash.

Why is it so important to shop seasonally?

Purchasing produce at its peak guarantees the freshest taste, the greatest nutritional value and the most affordable price.

What to buy?  Carrots, sweet potatoes, peppers, and green onions are just a few popular produce items that should be enjoyed in the harvest season.

How to prepare? Season your fall-fresh veggies using autumnal spices and seasonings like cloves, peppercorns, mustard seeds, and ginger. Bake them to create a warm and cozy side dish, soup or to compliment a rustic pasta dish.
