About seasonal things.

This is seasonal things. Welcome! I’m glad you’re here. I’m Jo, a lover of coziness, chaser of the first vegetables of spring, and a champion of August beach days.

Here on seasonal things. you’ll find inspiration for seasonal eating and activities (indoors and out), alongside books and movies that reflect the weather, and deeply do-able bucket lists for each season. Most of all you’ll find a nudge to embrace the rhythm of the year.

I’m based in Minnesota, in the American Midwest, and my writing reflects that. With year-round archives available, I hope you can discover a spark of inspiration for any season you find yourself in. Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and publication archives.
