🌿 Why Eating Seasonally Matters

Eating seasonally is one of the most natural ways to support your body’s changing needs. In the summer, our bodies crave lighter, hydrating foods and nature provides just that. Fresh fruits and veggies like cucumbers, berries and greens are packed with water, fiber and antioxidants that help you stay cool, energized and glowing.

Bonus? Local seasonal foods haven’t traveled as far, which means they retain more nutrients and support your local farmers and food systems.

🍽 Easy Ways to Use June Produce

• Make a rainbow salad with leafy greens, radishes, cucumbers and strawberries

• Blend a refreshing smoothie with berries, a little banana and fresh mint

• Try a zucchini stir-fry with snap peas, ginger, garlic and coconut aminos

• Infuse your water with lemon, cucumber and basil for a cooling sip

• Roast a tray of beets and carrots for easy add-ins throughout the week
