What's in Season: May Guide

May 20, 2025

May is a beautiful transition month. The days are longer, the sun is warmer and the farmer’s markets are bursting with color. Eating seasonally isn’t just trendy, it’s deeply nourishing. It’s one of the simplest ways to support your body, your wallet and your local farmers.

I put together this Seasonal Produce List for May so you know what to reach for when you hit the grocery store or plan your next juice, meal (or private chef dinner with me)!

Veggies That Shine in May

From asparagus and arugula to zucchini and turnip greens, May offers a lush variety of vegetables perfect for salads, sautés and everything in between. These greens are full of life, rich in fiber, antioxidants and flavor.

Pro tip: Roast asparagus and carrots with olive oil, sea salt and lemon zest for a simple, delicious side.

Fruits to Sweeten the Season

Fruit is having a moment right now! Think strawberries, cherries, and juicy stone fruits like peaches, nectarines, and apricots. It’s the perfect time to blend smoothies, prep fruit bowls, or just snack straight from the basket.

Pro tip: Make a juicy spring fruit salad with pineapple, mango, strawberries and a splash of lime.

Why Eat Seasonally?

Eating seasonally means:

  • Better flavor and nutrition

  • Lower cost

  • Less environmental impact

  • Alignment with nature’s rhythms

It’s a simple but powerful way to care for your body, mind and spirit.
