Who's behind this?
Eat Seasonably is designed to help everybody enjoy fruit and vegetables at their best. The campaign was launched in 2009 and has worked with many of the nation's biggest food businesses and charities to present a clear and simple picture of what's in season when and the sustainability benefits of eating seasonably. Eat Seasonably is owned and managed by the not-for-profit organisation Behaviour Change.
