The Food Guide Poster

The Northeast Regional Food Guide consists of two major components:
The Northeast Regional Food Pyramid is similar to the USDA Food Pyramid in that it has the same food groups. But what is different is that it pictures primarily foods grown and processed in the Northeastern United States.
Seasonal Availability Lists of Produce. Beneath the Northeast Regional Food Pyramid, the poster has lists of northeastern fruits, vegetables, and seasonings. For each season there is a list of fruits and vegetables that are currently available or could potentially be available from local sources, either fresh or stored.
