FALL

As the crisp air of fall settles in, it's the perfect time to embrace seasonal eating. Fall offers an abundance of nutritious vegetables and fruits that can enhance your diet, from hearty squashes to vibrant root vegetables. Popular fall produce includes long onions, winter squash, and amaranth, all of which can be found at local farmers markets. Not only do these seasonal ingredients pack nutritional punch, but they also promote sustainable eating by supporting local farmers. When shopping at farmers markets, take the opportunity to learn about the fresh goods available and experiment with cooking them in new ways! Dried fruits like jujube and apples can make for delicious snacks or ingredients in various recipes, contributing to healthier eating habits as the cooler months approach. Moreover, these choices can help build a connection between your meals and the changing seasons, adding richness and variety to your diet. Engage with others in the #fallveggies and #eatinghabits communities to share recipes and inspire each other to embrace the season the right way!
