Eating Seasonally

The team at BOB are qualified nutritionists. Both Lisa and Amy are passionate about eating well, organically, affordably and creating simple recipes from all the lovely surprises received each week in your BOB box. BOB wants you to feel good!!

By eating organically you're also eating seasonally which has many benefits including:

• Eating seasonally brings amazing variety to your diet. 
• With every season the fruit and vegetables bring a range of tastes, colours and textures The seasons give us a long-forgotten sense of the wonderful natural cycles.
• Seasonal food also plays a role in holistic health - generally, fruits and vegetables appear during the season in which they are best for your body. Rich, full-bodied apples and pumpkins are winter foods, while light, juicy, refreshing mangos and cucumbers are suited to summer.
• Fresh food in season is unbeatable in terms of taste, nutritional value and variety. 
• Most out-of-season food has been grown in artificial conditions, picked prematurely and shipped halfway around the world, giving it ample time to deteriorate and lose nutrients; this food is also limited to those varieties that can survive long-distance travel
