As the leaves start to change color and the air gets crisp, it’s the perfect time to enjoy all the seasonal produce that fall has to offer. From apples and pumpkins to squash and Brussels sprouts, so many delicious fruits and vegetables are available at your local farmers market – and buying in bulk is a great way to save money. Not only that but preserving some of your bounties by pickling or canning will help you enjoy fresh produce all winter long. Here are a few tips on how to get the most out of your fall grocery shopping:
Visit your local farmers’ market – Buying seasonal produce directly from farmers is not only a great way to support your local community, but it’s also typically cheaper than purchasing from the supermarket. Plus, you’ll have the opportunity to try new and interesting fruits and vegetables that you may not find at your regular grocery store.
Stock up on basics – Buying items like flour, sugar, and spices in bulk can help you save money in the long run. Not only that but having these staples on hand will make it easier to whip up seasonal recipes like pumpkin pie or apple crisp.
Pickle, can, or freeze – Preserving some of your fall produce is a great way to enjoy it long after the season is over. Canning or pickling fruits and vegetables is relatively easy and doesn’t require any special equipment. If you’re not into canning, freezing is also a great option – just be sure to label and date everything so you know what you have on hand.
Get creative with leftovers – If you find yourself with too much produce, get creative and use it in new and interesting ways. For example, pureed pumpkins can be used in soups, pies, or even pancakes. And don’t forget about those apple peels – they make a delicious add-in to any fall baking recipe.
By following these tips, you’ll be able to enjoy all the best that fall has to offer – without breaking the bank. So go ahead and stock up on seasonal produce, and get ready to enjoy some delicious home-cooked meals this autumn.
