It’s easier to eat the recommended five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables per day when they taste especially delicious and are available at a great price. Produce is at its peak of perfection and affordability when it’s in season. While spring, summer, fall and winter each host an assortment of fruits and veggies that are super tasty during the few months they’re in season, some produce is in season year round! The following produce items are available and delicious all 12 months of the year:
| Apples | Arrowroot | Apricots, Dried |
| Avocados | Bananas | Banana Squash |
| Bell Peppers | Black Eyed Peas | Black Radish |
