At a time when prices are through the roof due to high inflation, where we also suffer from high energy costs, the best decision is to buy seasonal products. Especially fresh products such as fruit and vegetables but also fish and meat. So our recommendation is clear, buy sustainable, local and seasonal products.
Sustainable products, if they are organic or from regenerative agriculture, are the best solution for our health and economy. They are collected in proximity and at the optimum moment of consumption and therefore have a better flavor, nutrients and of course fresher and tastier since they do not have to undergo long transport. All this means that the conservation in your home can be somewhat longer since it arrives with better conditions and thus food waste can be reduced.
Seasonal and local products are the most sustainable. Less resources have been used in its production. Also less energy in its transport and in its conservation, in this way its carbon footprint is much lower than that of products that arrive from far away out of season and where energy expenditure is very high.
Price and quality the best reason to buy seasonal products
They are good for our economy since in the height of the season the prices are very affordable and the quality is excellent. The offer in the vast majority of the months of the year is wide since in our country you can grow many fruits and vegetables that have adapted to our climate. Although winter is perhaps the worst season, the rest of the year we can enjoy fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, fish, etc. with a great variety and freshness.
Finally, remind you that with our seasonal purchase and with local producers we are helping the local economy. Also with this to strengthen the caretakers of our landscape.
