Cooking With Our Seasonal Food - Sweet Potato


With each change of season, soil microbiology changes, plant chemistry changes, and the microbes that attach themselves to the roots, stems, and leaves of each plant change like a changing of the guard. When we eat these plants in season, we are consuming the nutrients in the plant as well as the microbes that are attracted and attached to that plant.



Eating seasonal foods can help us reconnect to circadian rhythms and provide the genetic change we need to stay healthy from season to season.
