Early summer months in BC have a plentiful selection of locally grown foods. We can’t get enough of these seasonal treats and savour them as they’re in abundance! Here’s a great list of in-season products and suggested recipes to try at home or to take to a summer party. Don’t forget that products such as dairy (milk, cheese, yogurt), meats (chicken, beef, eggs), and greenhouse vegetables (look for Product of BC stickers) are available all year-round!
