FoE Seasonal Food Guide

Available for download from the Friends of the Earth website.

This Seasonal Food Guide tells you what fresh fruits and vegetables are in-season for each month of the year in the Melbourne area.  Developed by the Friends of the Earth Real Food group, the guide encourages you  to buy local, fresh, seasonal produce from small independent shops and food cooperatives.   The guide folds up and fits your purse or wallet so it’s easy to take it with you when you go out to do your shopping.  You can download the guide here.

Eating sustainably produced, locally grown, in-season food from small independent shops is one of the easiest things you can do to reduce your daily ecological footprint.
