What’s the South Florida growing season like?

September & October: farmers clear the fields and begin planting for the main vegetable harvest season. This is also historical peak hurricane risk for South Florida.

late October & November: harvesting starts for fast-growing greens and early crops

December – March: South Florida’s peak vegetable harvest season. While the rest of the country freezes, our warmer weather fosters an abundant and varied selection of locally-grown produce; many tropical fruit trees begin blooming.

April-early May: changing weather… primary vegetable growing season winds down, fields are plowed and prepared for summer. Harvesting begins for early varieties of tropical fruit.

May – August: peak summer, rainy season, main harvest time for many  tropical fruit and tropical vegetables. Resting fields are left fallow or planted in cover crops to foster regeneration.
