Ideally eating seasonally means eating locally---from your own garden plot, if not, then local farms, but the supermarket works if the other two are not available. As a whole, our culture over focuses on food and eating, so I don't want to get too hung up on organics, local, etc---just try to do my best providing a variety of healthy fresh food with what's available and cutting out (as much as possible) processed foods.
Where to start? We are planning a spring garden, but for today---what is in season this time of year in Georgia? Georgia Organics has a Local Food Guide with a chart showing what is being produced on Georgia farms during the year long growing season. Here's the list I took to the grocery:
Arugula
Brussels sprouts
Cabbage
Carrots
Collards
Kale and other greens
Lettuce
Mushrooms
English peas
Sweet potatoes
Radish
Spinach
Turnips
