Which fruits and vegetables are in season when?!


Question: I'm in the western US if that matters any. I would also like to know how it is better for the environment to eat fruits and vegetables that are in season if anyone knows.

As for the second part of your question, I'm not a tree hugger so I don't care.

I'm not sure if it's better for the environment but I know it's healthier. When fruits or vegetables are not in season they are picked before they are ripe because if they are picked when riped they will rot before they get to the store.
