We recently had an interesting question posted by Ross Boardman in the Wiggly Wigglers Facebook Group.
I'm trying to come up with some ideas on food which doesn't have a season, for example chicken or pork. There is a lot of info out there on food that has specific dates in terms of growing, harvesting and indeed culling, but not a lot on what is there 365 days of the year. This does not refer to whats on the shelf in the local mega-market, but what you could obtain from local producers. Any thoughts?Thanks,
Ross
Farmer Phil has tracked down a great chart on the School Food Trust web site showing a British Seasonal Food Chart (this chart can be downloaded as a .pdf).
The School Food Trust says, “The seasonal food chart highlights vegetables, salad, fruit, meat and fish. It plots their availability across the year and their peak nutritional value to cooks”.
