Not only are foods often more nutritious when they&#8217;re &#8216;in-season&#8217;, but they&#8217;re also usually fresher and more flavoursome.\u202f <br \/><br \/>While it might seem obvious to eat foods when they&#8217;re in season, how we consume food means it&#8217;s not always so clear-cut. &#8220;If you are a gardener, you&#8217;re likely to be eating seasonally anyway, harvesting what is ripe as it happens&#8221;, says Tracey.\u202f <br \/><br \/>&#8220;If you&#8217;re a city-dweller with little space or have space but not time, it&#8217;s easy to lose track of what is in season.
