What’s in season: SEPTEMBER

From crunchy juicy apples to beautiful round pumpkins, this seasonal produce guide with recipe suggestions will inspire you to eat fresh and as seasonally as possible throughout the month of SEPTEMBER.

I’m an advocate of a healthy diet and healthy eating for me means eating seasonal and local foods. Eating seasonal produce will reward you with many benefits – from savings in the family budget to high quality produce packed with nutrition.

It’s late summer and fall is coming and with it a variety of fall fruits and veggies that you can enjoy throughout the season. Here’s what’s in season in SEPTEMBER.
