Eating foods in season is good for your wallet and your health. Epicurious has a Seasonal Ingredient Map that let’s you pick the month and location to aid you in choosing the freshest ingredients possible for your dish. When food is in season, it has higher nutrition and tastes better. You are also more likely to support your local economy, therefore, engage in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly habits. Plus, eating healthy can be expensive, but eating locally and in-season will bring your costs down.

I’ve already seen strawberries, peaches, nectarines, cherries, asparagus, and artichokes at my favorite farmer’s market in Mar Vista and May has just started!
