4 Benefits of eating seasonal vegetables

While implementing organic practices in the field, local plants appeared as the most sustainable choice we could make in all our farms. Native crops consume less water, and can even survived for a week without a single drop. The resistance of the plant is increased by the seasonal cultivation.

By mixed cropping, our organic farmers use less land for a better production. Rice in combination with seasonal vegetables can keep the soil healthy, without exhausting the minerals it contains.

Here are 4 other benefits of consuming seasonal vegetables.

1) Less expense

For the consumers, seasonal vegetables may have lot of benefits but the first one is the price. Following the season can help to reduce the shopping bill, as the production is on peak.

2) The taste

Nature follows a proper cycle and provide the minerals and micro-elements we need accordingly. In summer, fruits and vegetables are sweet, and can hydrate our bodies. It does not only has a better taste, but it is better for your health too.

3) Eco-friendly

Fresh vegetables harvested in natural time are not only seasonal, they are also local. It means that we reduce the carbon foot print made by the travel from the farm to your supermarket until your home sweet home. Finally, shopping local and seasonal will avoid pesticides and GMO on your plate.

4) Sustainability

Affordable seasonal vegetables are preferred by small farmers for their production/cost relations. Adding the seasonal produce to your plate can support small farms and village community.
