Hey all,

With seasons changing it's hard to figure out what fruit and vegetables are in-season each week. So I've created a digest (delivered each Monday) of what fruit & vegetables are in-season that week.

rightnow.nz

Hope some find it useful and of course I'd appreciate any feedback!

I like the idea. I can see this more or less in the supermarket price variation through the year but it could help with recipe planning maybe.

DO you have an example, at the moment the website seems like a email address harvest (pun intended)...

You should consider publishing the current weeks digest to the website as well.

Valid point. Yeah, I intend to also publish each weeks digest which I hope will make it seem more legit.

Well, I like your concept pretty much and just signed up. What is interesting for me is what source of information do you use? This also could be posted on your website to gain more credibility. Anyway, wish you best of luck!

Sounds like a great idea.

As a vegetable grower, I'm keen to read your digest.
