I love food - and I love seasonal food - for lots o reasons.

The recent purchase of a butternut squash inspired the cooking of butternut squash risotto, and got me thinking again about all the other things I can make from this vast vegetable, the joy and importance of eating seasonally.

Eating seasonally can help us connect with nature’s seasons, use up what we have grown on our allotment on veg patch or in our balcony pots.

It can reduce emissions from the food we eat and the other environmental impacts of that food.
