Recipes, Nutrition, and Budget-Saving Tips

Shop in Season

Shopping in season means selecting produce that is purchased and consumed around the time it is harvested. In season produce is not only more flavorful, but it’s a great way to lower the cost of your grocery bill. If the produce you need is not in season, try selecting a canned or frozen version. These are just as nutritious and last much longer than their fresh versions. Comparing the unit price will allow you to make the best decision for your wallet. For more information on in season produce in Idaho, visit idahopreffered.com.
