July in the Netherlands means lettuce, mangetout & sugar snaps, green beans, courgettes, cucumbers, broccoli, cauliflower and kohlrabi. Green beans, runner beans, tomatoes, sweet peppers and aubergines come in this month. Rhubarb, garden peas, broad beans, cherries and gooseberries end with July, so this is the month to buy them.

🦌 Wild game in July 2

Roe deer, red and fallow deer and wild boar have too few natural predators here, so each province sets how many are culled every year. We only include game from these management culls, never from hunting for sport: eating it means the animal is used as food rather than wasted.
