How To : Eating With The Seasons || A Monthly Guide

May 22, 2017 · Leave a Comment

How To Eat With The Seasons : A Monthly Produce Guide | Dreamery EventsWhen it comes to executing a meal when entertaining guests for a outdoor summer party or planning your menu for your fall wedding, as an event planner and baker, my tip is to stay flexible. And work with the season you’re in! You may have your heart set on using peaches in February or Figs in May, but when shopping at your farmers’ market and grocery store or meeting with your venue’s chef, you’ll ultimately face the earth shattering realization that your dream ingredients are unavailable. I’m a firm believer in eating with the seasons, not only is it healthier but since these ingredients are naturally being harvested, you’ll ensure that the produce and food you’re eating tastes its best.

You won’t find me eating asparagus or zucchini in the winter, because they simply won’t taste as fresh as during springtime. This is when you can get creative with what nature offers you! So once you’ve shaken it off and accepted that you won’t have strawberry pies at your wedding, you realize a pear tart would be just as lovely. On the contrary, guests will enjoy a seasonal based meal, much more than one forced to fit your plan. The best food comes from the freshest ingredients, so pay attention to the seasonality of the food you plan to serve.How To Eat With The Seasons : A Monthly Guide | Dreamery Events And since most don’t actually know when they’re favorite produce is in season, I’ve put together a seasonal chart letting you know all the different types of vegetables and fruits available each month of the year. As we begin to head to the farmer’s market and entertain guests more, now you’ll be prepared and inspired to create a great meal. Download this pretty Seasonal Produce Guide and hang it in your kitchen!  Eating With The Seasons || A Monthly Guide || Dreamery Events


Get ready for the rest of spring and summer months, there’s plenty of delicious produce to cook with. What produce are you most looking forward to eat this season?

I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early da I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early days w. remnants of the previous month still lingering…
the fragrant & gorgeous Jacaranda trees lighting up cobblestone alleys lined w. pastel colored buildings, becoming more vibrant as Summer’s heat begins to near….
Walking along the Rio Tejo feeling so close to the sea but not quite there & the streets not yet crowded w. vacationers basking in the city’s delight … walking around Lisboa is certainly a creative treat!! I’d love to be able to squeeze in a little summer travel; change of scenery is always such an inspiration, especially when life seems a bit crazy these days. 

Any fun summer travels planned? Hope everyone enjoys the first weekend of summer🌼

how fleeting you have been sweet, darling June… how fleeting you have been
sweet, darling June…

it seems we’re all being kept too busy these days, I don’t want the simple treasures of this month to go by so quickly but it’s like I haven’t slowed down enough to catch my breath between events & to do’s — not since my birthday, these flowers & a cake I enjoyed making too much to photograph. They weren’t for my birthday, but for someone else’s, but it really was the joy of creating this arrangement however way the color yellow called to me, foraging for delicate peonies, garden roses & stems that would make these uniquely special🌿

Not the most picturesque photo of these beautiful florals (you can swipe for those), but I’m quite enamored w. this shot … perhaps it’s that gentle reminder to slow down & take note of the in-between…
