Fruits give that added flavor to desserts, cocktails, spices and meals. They can also be used to make syrups, jams, and beautifully infused water. But in order to get the most out of your fruits, it is best to buy seasonal. Not only do you support local farmers but you get the full nutrients from an item because you are not biting into something that has been frozen, shipped or full of pesticides.
Check out this seasonal fruit chart below created by Shari's Berries and let it inspire your next cuisine! It has over 50 fruits by peak season. Simply look for the fruit you wish to use and the chart will show you when it is available. Keep in mind, seasonal fruits may vary from year to year depending on the climate. If an area is too cold or too hot, it could affect availability and length of the growing season so it is best to check with the grocer or farmer to know exactly what is available during each month.
