Eating seasonal produce goes hand in hand with how it can help reduce your environmental footprint. For starters, choosing local is healthy for our soil. Aligning your diet with the seasons supports the diversifications of local agriculture because it allows time for nutrients to be recycled back into a crop’s soil. Choosing to eat what’s locally in season also results in fewer food miles that your products had to travel to get to you. This results in less fuel and resources needed to transport your food. It also means that less food is damaged while in transit, reducing the amount of food waste that commonly occurs when food must be imported great distances.
