Lately I have picked up some not-so-good fruit. I have been trying to buy produce that I know is in season but every now and then I veer off into the land of fruits I love but are not in season. My choice to veer has only wasted me money because when I get the delicious looking fruit home it just doesn’t hold up to its image. A new month means some new fruits and vegetables in season so here is the March In Season Fruits and Vegetables list – for ALL of us to stick to!
- Avocados
- Blood Oranges
- Grapefruit
- Kumquat
- Lemon
- Navel Oranges
- Tangelos/Tangerines
- Dates
- Passion Fruit
- Strawberries
Vegetables:
- Asparagus
- Beets
- Broccoli
- Cabbage
- Carrots
- Cauliflower
- Celery
- Chard
- Collards
- Kale
- Kohlrabi
- Lettuce
- Mushroom
- Green Onion
- Green Peas
- Spinach
- Turnips
A few weekends ago I took the kids to a birthday party that was out in the country. Yes, even in Florida we have what is considered ‘country.’ I couldn’t help but notice all of the fields of cabbage and how pretty they looked. I knew right away cabbage would be going on this list!!
I did a big grocery shopping trip Friday night and there are definitely some good prices on some of the in-season fruits and vegetables. I picked up strawberries at 3 for $5, grapefruit, cauliflower, broccoli, oranges and cabbage.
