Yikes, I’m so behind with my blogging that I’ve forgotten my monthly what’s-in-season list. It may be the middle of the March, but here’s my list of the in-season fruit and vegetables in Sydney at the moment.

We’re into autumn, so they types of fruit and veg available are gradually starting to shift. Stone fruit and berries are going out of season this month, which will be reflected in sharp price increases. While the new season apples, pears and nashis are becoming available.

• longons
• mangosteens
• melons still seem to be a good price, although they are moving out of season
• nashi
• nectarines are finishing
• oranges (Valencia)
• passionfruit
• pawpaw
• peaches are finishing
• pears (especially Williams and buerre bosc)
