Seasonal Produce

[Rmiller]

Hi,

I've been searching for a VERY complete chart that shows when every fruit and veggie is in season. Does anyone know where I could find this info?

Well it depends on where you live, doesn't it?
If you're in the USA, the Dept of Agriculture probably has one... or Territorial Seeds.

Every area has it's own local produce. 85% of veggies are cool-season veggies. So they would be fresh locally from late summer through spring - depending on the variety. Fruits have a much more diverse ripening calendar...based on variety and locale.

-Your best bet would be to contact your local Ag Extension Office to determine your local in-season produce, varieties and ripening times.

-I hope this is helpful.
