Fruit and vegetable prices will change throughout the year due to seasonality and location.
By buying fruit that's "in season" in your area, you'll save money and get the freshest produce.
Just because something is available at your grocery store doesn't mean that it is fresh or that it is a good price. Be aware that most fruits are flash frozen so that they can be made available all year round. While this is convenient, you pay for it since out of season produce carries a heftier price. Produce that's in season, however, will be less expensive and taste the freshest.
Search Sustainable Table to see what's fresh in your area and let the produce determine what's on the menu tonight!
If you don't have the time (or desire) to learn about what's in season, just
get in the habit of picking up whatever's on sale. This will change from week to week which means you'll get great variety while keeping your budget in control.
