One of the best things about living in Florida is its long growing season, which results in absolutely divine farm-fresh produce throughout the year! The cherry on top (pun intended) is that right now we are smack dab in the middle of what many people would deem the best part.

Do you crave salads of crisp romaine topped with diced tomatoes, refreshing cucumber and red onion or fruit cups bursting with sweet berries? Are you longing for farm-to-table eggplant parmesan just like Grandma used to make? Thinking it would be great for your diet (and not bad for your tastebuds either) to add grapefruit or Florida orange slices to your breakfast menu? Dreaming about your grill grates lined with pepper skewers in vibrant orange, yellow, red and green and rounding out a barbecue dreams are made of with sweet corn on the cob and watermelon slices? Me too!

May must-haves (which thankfully last for months and months!), when it comes to fresh fruits, include peaches, cantaloupe, blueberries, papaya and mangoes. For veggies this time of year, think avocado, snap beans and those oh so wonderful tangy tomatoes and ears of sugary sweet corn.

If you’re hoping to savor the flavor of in-season Florida produce, you’re in luck! You can find all your favorite fresh fruits and vegetables at any of Perrine’s Produce’s convenient locations.
