There’s nothing like biting into a fresh-from-the-orchard crispy sweet apple in summer, or a perfectly juicy orange in winter. Fruits are always better when they’re grown and harvested in their natural seasons in your area than those that travel too far before being gobbled up. As the weather gets cooler, and some of those summer crops extend into or are harvested in early fall, it’s the best time to enjoy those varied fruits in season to get more flavor and nutrition!
