In season where?

Nice though - I've wanted this to exist, but haven't been so motivated to build it - thanks!

In season in the EU (as of why the flag)

I aggregated all data of different countries and cross-referenced it as I think a in-europe transport is still fine :)

Ah so it's now all out of season for me in the UK.. ;)

I wasn't sure if the flag was to indicate that it just your citizenship. If you wanted to build on it further, I think there would be value in location filtering, since it depends why someone is interested.

Perhaps, for example, someone is more strict in their views than you and thinks eating Maltese produce (uh..) in the Netherlands isn't ok.

Or in my own case, it's not actually about 'food miles', just an interest in eating more locally and 'forcing' some variety or creativity by something not being available.

same here - I had created a document with some of the vegetables and the best months to eat them that my mom had told me about but this is much better :)

I really over-complicated it, thinking that the data's so not-proprietary and generally useful that it really should be in Wikidata, and then the app just lightweight wrapper drawing from that.

So naturally, as I do with all things, I thought about it and thought about it, decided how I wanted it to be ideally, and didn't do anything at all.
