There are many benefits to eating seasonal food, but how to know when what’s in season? Find a free UK seasonal food chart printable here.
I recently talked about five compelling incentives to eat seasonal food. But how to know when which fruits and vegetables are in season? I’ve designed a helpful tool that will help you on your way.
UPDATE: This UK seasonal food chart was last updated in January 2023.
ABOUT THAT SEASONAL FOOD…
If you missed out on 5 reasons why you should eat the seasons in the UK (and anywhere else really), make sure to read that first! It will get you excited for this new (or re-newed) journey you’re embarking on.
I have to let you in on a little secret… The concept of eating seasonal is actually quite new to me.
But you know me. When I read about all of the amazing benefits that come with it, I HAD to share it. You can, just like I intend to do, use this knowledge to your benefit.
Use it as:
– INSPIRATION when planning and creating your meals.
– A NEW APPROACH to food that could enrich your diet and support your body even more.
– A ROUTINE to get more in touch with the seasons and the rhythms of nature.
– A MEANS to become more sustainable or to increase your support to your local community.
YOUR FREE TOOL
To KNOW that implementing seasonal food into your diet is beneficial to you, your family, and the world around you, is one thing. To actually IMPLEMENT that knowledge, is another.
It is not that simple. It takes time to shift your way of thinking and to create an awareness of what’s in season.
But a clear and simple to use tool could speed up that process. If you are from the UK, and I know most are, then a UK Seasonal Food Chart will be exactly what you need.
When I searched for one online, I felt there weren’t many options. You often had to pay for them or the design wasn’t attractive or straightforward enough for me.
So I decided to take matters into my own hands. I grabbed a cup of tea, chose a good Spotify playlist to listen to, and started creating.
If you would like to hang this UK seasonal food chart on your fridge, then I have good news for you. It’s free!
All you have to do is fill in your details below and the free printable will be sent straight to your inbox.
I hope it will be helpful to you!
P.S. Please be aware that I am not a professional. I have created this food chart with the help of the online information provided by multiple sources (view those here and here).
I am unaware by which requirements they have adhered for these fruits and vegetables to be regarded as seasonal.
