what’s in season: may

Eating foods when they’re in season is something I think is really important. This way, you’re able to source them locally – which is better for the environment, and get to enjoy their heightened flavour! However, the struggle I’ve always faced in doing this, is knowing which fruits and vegetables are in season and when.

To try and help me to eat more seasonally, I thought I’d make a list of the fruits an vegetables that are in season each month in the UK. I created illustrations for each, and thought I’d share them on here with you so that you can learn more about whats in season as I do! So, beginning with May, here’s what I’ve found are in season this month.
