Seasonal Food Chart

Winter is almost over and it's time now to use, up, or preserve those winter fruits and veggies.  Below are links to Seasonal Food Charts  http://www.seasonalchef.com/cropchart2.htm  that show what produce is in season throughout the year in Southern California. http://www.seasonalchef.com/cropchart1.htm If you're not here in SOCAL you can look on line for more SFC in your region of the country.  Eating seasonal is important because the quality of the food is best when it is at it's peak, it tastes better, it has more vitamins and nutirents and more of it is available so the cost of it goes down considerably. 

You might want to keep a copy of these charts with your grocery shopping list each week to help you search for the best quality and bargains while purchasing produce.
