Hey All - riding on the heels of last week's blog, I'm inspired to continue my pursuit in eating sustainably, organically and seasonally.
This week I decided to choose one fruit and one veggie that is in season here in the Big Apple (pun intended) and I'm happy to report that 2 of my favs are on the "It List" right now. Strawberries (through July) and Asparagus.
A couple of notes on this - try to choose organic strawberries. Berries have some of the highest pesticide load, so it's kind of defeating the purpose. Asparagus has a low pesticide residue, so it's ok to eat conventionally grown in this case.
These are just two of the many seasonal goodies available. If you'd like to check out more in New York City and other parts of the country, check out: Sustainable.org's Seasonal Food Guide.
Enjoy. Buon Appetito. Have a great weekend! Big Love, PatriciaG
