What’s In Season - December Edition

Wow, and just like that it’s the last month of 2025!

December gifts us one more beautiful month of vibrant, local produce — and we still have three whole weeks (and a few days) to savor it. Eating fresh and in season isn’t just a trend…it’s a love note to your earthly body, your community, and this planet we call home.

Think about it:
Would you rather enjoy greens harvested just miles from where you live — or greens that spent days on the road before reaching your plate? Fresh, local food simply tastes better, nourishes deeper, and supports the farmers who are feeding the same goodness to their own families.

Choosing seasonal produce is a magical act of care:
✨ Your body gets the highest nutritional value
✨ Your local economy thrives
✨ You lower your environmental footprint
✨ Your taste buds celebrate

This month, let your plate reflect the season. Cozy soups, roasted root vegetables, leafy green sautés, bright juices, and winter citrus salads — it all works. Raw, roasted, steamed, juiced, or blended…your only job is to eat the goodness. 🌱

Below is your December peak-season list — your invitation to shop fresh, shop local, and #EatYourMedicine all month long.
