Seasonal cooking:
Fall’s Fruits and Vegetables Calendar

Choosing seasonal fruits and vegetables goes beyond mere taste. End-of-year statistics highlight this truth: to effectively reduce our carbon footprint, our choices at the table matter. Whether at home or dining out, seasonal cooking aligns seamlessly with a pursuit of sustainability and culinary enjoyment. By selecting local, in-season products, we embrace a lifestyle attuned to nature’s cycles and significantly reduce the carbon footprint associated with transport.

Seasonal cooking brings numerous benefits, enhancing our health, supporting the planet, and boosting our local economy by promoting local agriculture. With this in mind, Teritoria has put together the autumn fruit and vegetable calendar to help us rediscover the rich flavours of seasonal produce, while actively participating in environmental preservation and advocating for more sustainable agriculture.

As leaves take on warmer hues and the air cools, seasonal cuisine invites us into a world of autumnal flavours. October holds no shortage of rich, varied tastes, perfectly suiting this season of transition. It’s the ideal time to (re)discover restaurants where indulgence meets ecological commitment, or to put on your favourite apron and prepare dishes inspired by the colours of fall.
