Seasonal produce guide
Our guide to seasonal fruit and veg available in Victoria and Australia. Eat fresh, eat delicious, and celebrate the seasons!
Note: This guide indicates what is available from Victoria and Murray Region growers, as well as interstate. Availability also reflects farming and storage methods that extend the usual seasons - like local apples kept in cold storage once harvested.

winter
June - August
A time for nourishing meals, zingy citrus full of vitamins, and sweet root vegetables that create their own sugars underground (nature’s DIY anti-freeze), making them all the more impressive and delicious. Winter is also brassica season where every cabbage-cousin has a staring role – think broccoli, cauliflower, Brussels, romanesco, wombok, kale and kohlrabi.
