In this episode of 1% Shift, we explored the benefits of eating seasonally for both our health and the environment. By aligning our diets with nature's rhythms and embracing locally grown, seasonal produce, we not only support our own well-being with a diverse range of nutrients but also reduce greenhouse gas emissions, support local farmers, and promote agricultural diversity.
Takeaways:
- Nutritional Diversity: Eating seasonally allows us to rotate our diets and enjoy a diverse range of nutrients throughout the year, supporting overall health and preventing nutrient deficiencies.
- Environmental Impact: Choosing locally grown, seasonal produce reduces the carbon footprint associated with long-distance transportation of out-of-season foods, helping to mitigate climate change.
- Supporting Local Farmers: Purchasing from farmers' markets or joining CSA programs supports local farmers, preserves farmland, and strengthens rural communities.
- Embracing Creativity: Get creative in the kitchen by experimenting with new recipes featuring seasonal ingredients, expanding culinary horizons while enjoying the freshest flavors nature has to offer.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
