eat the season – Whats Good to Eat This Week
http://www.eattheseasons.com/
With an increasingly urbanized population, awareness of when and where various foods are produced has dwindled. Imports from around the world ensure that supermarket shelves look the same week in week out. eat the seasons aims to promote an understanding of food seasons. Each week they list the seasonal foods that are at their peak, and share enlightening facts, useful tips and enticing recipe ideas picked from the web and their favourite books. Fruit and vegetables make up a large number of the foods they focus on, but seafood and meat are also featured. Given the climatic differences across North America they do not attempt a comprehensive listing of all local foods but instead focus on the main seasonal produce from across the region, whether that be Californian pomegranates or kohlrabi from Quebec. See food seasons for an explanation of how the seasons indicated relate to areas of North America, and refer to the incredibly useful Eat Well Guide for links to state-by-state listings of seasonal food.
