GO BEYOND FOUR SEASONS
Each fruit and vegetable has its own season, with subtle shifts that happen every day. Follow their microseasons to unlock flavour at every stage.
In season today
For us, the life cycle of fruit and vegetables is more complex than simply ‘in’ or ‘out’ of season. We follow each one through its microseason — early, peak or late — noticing subtle shifts and hitting on unique flavours.
Catch the first harvests in their early season. Usually not yet available in abundance, this is a good time to introduce these fruits and vegetables into your menus, as we build towards peak season — when the plant is thriving and usually at its most plentiful. Most often, produce in peak season has the fullest concentration of flavour. Once a plant moves into late season, it’s time to savour the last of it and look forward to what’s coming next.

WE EXIST TO FIX THE FOOD SYSTEM.
People are more cut off from the origins of their food than ever. This makes flavor, nutrition and farming practices that protect the planet, almost impossible to find.
By working directly with growers, we create a more sustainable way forward for farming. By giving everyone the tools to understand the power of our food choices, we empower everybody to become drivers of change.
Now is the time for action. Join the food system revolution.
