USDA’s Guide to Seasonal Produce

It’s getting colder outside, but there are still lots of fruits and veggies that are fresh and abundant in the winter months.

This guide can help you explore different fruits and vegetables throughout the year. Seasonal produce in your area will vary by growing conditions and weather. Remember, fresh, frozen, canned, and dried: fruits and vegetables are a delicious way to make every bite count.

Farmers markets are a great way to support local farms, and they are also a great place to get fruits and veggies! Fruits and veggies cost less when they are in season. See below for a list of seasonal produce.
