Fruit flowers open, the herds return to pastures: spring settles slowly. With the temperatures that soften, the stalls fill up, the markets come back to life. It’s a good time to go out, meet producers, on a market or directly on the farm.
The vegetables on duty gradually give way to more choices and colors: tooth of lion, asparagus, rhubarb … Strawberries will soon follow. Among the members of the Roman market association, seasonal vegetables are gradually coming.
If you cannot free yourself during opening hours, think of the weekly baskets delivered to your home or in a nearby collection point: a simple way of consuming local, even with a busy schedule.
For those who have access to a balcony or a garden, spring is also an opportunity to plant the first seeds. A great opportunity to follow the progress of the seasons at home and raise awareness of what grows around them.
