Why eat seasonally? See this post to learn more about the benefits of eating in season.

September is one of those in-between months that feels like neither summer nor fall. (So far, it definitely has felt more like summer than fall!) Enjoy summer’s bounty while it’s still here (peaches and plums will be out of season before the end of the month) and get excited because it’s finally pumpkin and winter squash season!
