Fruit seasons
"In season" depends on where you're standing. When mangoes flood the markets of Manila, it's feijoa season in New Zealand — the Southern Hemisphere runs exactly half a year out of phase. Find your month below, then follow your hemisphere's season to what's at its peak. Many tropical fruits near the equator follow monsoons rather than temperate seasons; each fruit page lists its peak months by region.
