What's in season in March 2026, and other timely information:

The dates are approximate; as many factors affect when the harvest is ready for picking: weather, variety, and area of the state - And Texas is a huge state so there is quite a large variety of differences in climate! Always call the farm a few weeks in advance to verify when they crops will be ready to pick, and then again on the day you want to go.
