These charts show when fresh fruits, herbs, and vegetables commonly grown in Michigan's lower peninsula are most likely ready to buy. Dates can change a little each year and in different parts of the state.
Note: Not all foods will be at every market during these times. Some foods might be available outside of these expected times if they are grown in greenhouses or sourced from other parts of Michigan or other states.
