More Reasons to Eat with the Seasons
Better Quality & Better Flavor
Because seasonal produce is recently picked, it spends less time sitting on a truck or in a warehouse. This means it retains more of its nutritional value and rich flavor by the time you pick it up in store.
Supports Local and Regional Growers
When you buy peak-season produce, you’re reinvesting in your community. Sprouts Farmers Market is proud to work with local and regional farmers across the country to bring you the best-tasting, freshest produce available.
Good for the Planet
Seasonal growing is less harmful to the environment than out-of-season crops. In fact, buying seasonal produce can help reduce water and land use, pollution and soil loss.
Good for Your Wallet
Out-of-season produce is often trucked in from areas with different growing climates, making it more costly to transport. In-season crops allow farmers to harvest more and sell at lower prices, keeping more money in your wallet.
How to Pick the Most A-Peeling Citrus
Unlike most fruit, citrus won’t continue to ripen once it’s picked, so what you choose in-store is what you’ll enjoy at home! Here’s how to pick the best and brightest citrus, every time:
The Heavier, The Better
Try to go for citrus that has a little more weight to it—this means that the fruit jam-packed with juice!
A Little Squish Means It’s Delish
Pick up your citrus and give it a gentle squeeze. Your perfect citrus will have a little give, so avoid fruits that are rock hard or a little too squishy.
It Smells as Sweet as It Tastes
Either sniff your citrus near the stem or give the peel a little scratch to try and release some aroma. Underripe fruit will have little to no scent, while ripe fruit will be sweeter or more tangy smelling.
We're Proud to Bring You the Freshest Local Produce Around
Our local farmers play a big role in delivering peak-season picks. That means you’re getting the freshest produce while supporting communities close to home.
