Crop Timetable

Here is a guide to what we normally include in your boxes each year. Since growing produce relies on weather, a notoriously fickle and unpredictable phenomenon, this chart is not a guarantee that any of these items will be available during the months marked. We created this simply to give you an idea of when we typically have certain items. We also include items in our boxes that may not appear on this chart.

If you have any questions about what’s available when, please email us at organic@eatwell.com. Updated June 2009.
