It's sometimes hard to know which foods are in season in the UK, particularly when there's so much available on supermarket shelves throughout the year.

Eating seasonally is when you are eating foods that are ready to harvest at the same time of year that you are eating them. We've put together this simple month by month guide, delicious seasonal recipe ideas and quick tips on foraging and growing your own salads to help.

Locally produced seasonal food is tasty and healthy as nutrients and flavours have fully developed, we've also often found it more affordable.

Eating local foods in season offers an environmental bonus as the produce will have travelled fewer miles and it is less likely to be found in plastic packaging.

It will also have needed fewer pesticides and inorganic fertilisers to grow. Buying directly from a farm shop or a veg box scheme can be a handy way to help you munch month by month.
