There are many health benefits found in fruit and vegetables. As more and more consumers are buying fresh fruit and vegetables, they are learning how to do so cost effectively. Here are some tips on how to buy the variety of fresh fruit and vegetables you need - and save money, too!

• Always buy in-season produce.
• Take advantage of in-store promotions.
• Buy some items to store, and others to eat right away, so you always have a good supply.
