Susan Mackerras 03 November, 2007

I have been looking for a list for the sydney are of the season of fruits & veges like:

apples – Feb – Aug

etc.

Do you have one or do you know where I can find one?


kathryn 03 November, 2007

Hi there Susan. I publish a monthly list of what’s in season on this blog – because this information is quite hard to access. Despite being told the benefits of eating seasonally – it’s quite hard to work out what you should be eating and when. I don’t know of a list in the format you require, but you could try gardening websites. They may give an indication of what vegetables crop, so you know what to plant.

You can track the fruit and vegetables in season through my what’s in season category.
