Morning, peeps!
For those of us who live in more tropical climates (Jen, Jill, & Goldieđââď¸) fresh produce is abundant. Sweet mangoes, coconuts, and pineapples so good they ruin the canned stuff forever. đ
BUT not all produce is created equal, especially when itâs out of season. No matter where you are, one of the best ways to save money on food and eat better is by shopping for what’s in season. đ¤ď¸
When you buy what’s in season, youâre also supporting local farmers (bless them), reducing your carbon footprint, and getting produce thatâs often yummier and more nutritious.Â
After all, produce thatâs grown close to home can be picked at its peak ripeness and delivered to your local stores in a fraction of time and money it takes for out-of-season imports to get to your plate.
Not to mention, it is a fun way to explore new recipes and add variety to your meals! And once you get the hang of shopping and eating with the seasonsânot against themâthereâs no turning back. It just makes sense. đÂ
âď¸ Weâve put together a FREE produce seasonality guide for you to download. Itâll help you shop smarter, save more, and maybe even find a new favorite veggie.
âśď¸ And catch our latest Sunday Reset video, where we answer a listener question about how to make purchases without feeling guilty. Â
 đ°ď¸ Perfectly timed bills đ°ď¸
When you shop, timing matters. You wouldnât buy strawberries in winter unless theyâre from that one local stand who always seems to have the freshest options on the block.
The same goes for life insurance. Getting it at the right time ensures youâre covered when you need it most. With Ladder, you can lock in affordable and flexible life insurance in 5 minutes.
The best time to get insured is before you need it so donât put it off. Future you will be glad you did!
Spending is a skill and you can learn to master it. If youâve ever struggled with being unable to stick to a budget or felt guilty about spending on something you enjoy, Jen and Jillâs debut book is going to be your next favorite read.
