Eat the Seasons: Fruit & Veg That’s in Season Now

Eat the Seasons: Winter

What’s in season now?

A menu focused on seasonal produce has never been so cool. But why is it so important to eat the freshest, most abundantly available produce there is?

The less distance and time we put from the moment the vegetables are pulled from the ground to when they sit on our plates, means we are getting the best possible nutrition from our food, taking out the pesticides and preservatives.

This winter it’s all about hearty root vegetables, perfect for warming soups, curries, stews and roasts…
