What's in season - September
The nights may have started drawing in, but the harvest is still in full swing. This is probably my favourite time as wild mushrooms are now in full season, game is available, as well as plenty of fish to be had. Fruits are readily available so lots of chutneys, jams and baking going on chez Kitchen Exile.
