Eating seasonally used to be a way of life, and it can still save you money today. In this clip, we talk about how simple habits like picking apples in season, making homemade applesauce, and turning wild blackberries into syrup or jelly helped stretch a tight food budget. You’ll also hear about an old-fashioned pumpkin pie recipe that skips evaporated milk but still sets beautifully using an extra egg. These are practical, economical kitchen tips that still work today. If you want to save money on groceries and cook more from scratch, start with what’s in season.
