When spring comes around, a whole new batch of seasonal fruits and vegetables becomes available for us to enjoy at the peak of their flavor and taste. While some fruits that come into season in spring are pretty normal and every day, there are others that perhaps don’t get enough love in our kitchens.

Here are some that you should check out.

Kumquats

Have you ever tried a kumquat before? These small fruits, which look like a miniature, oblong orange, have an intensely sweet and tart flavor that makes them a great choice for snacking. Be sure to eat the peel, too!

Apricots

While you’ve probably seen apricot-flavored things all over the place in your life, have you ever had the chance to sit down and eat one? The soft, tender flesh of this peach-like fruit has a sweet and slightly tart flavor, and also is a great source of fiber.

Grapefruits

One of my favorite spring breakfasts is as simple as this big fruit sliced in two and sprinkled with a bit of sugar. The intensely sour flavor of grapefruits might not be for all, but adding just a little bit of sweetness makes it one of my favorite fruit flavors.

As the calendar continues to advance, the dawn of the spring season is now upon us. The warmer weather and the longer days don’t only mean that we can start putting away our winter coats, but it also means that the type of fresh produce that is in season is beginning to change.

If you’re a fan of in-season, local fruit, keep an eye out for these spring fruits at your local grocery store or market.

Lemons

Lemons are at their peak in late winter and early spring, making them a great choice for this time of the year. Their tart flavor and range of uses, from lemon peel in cakes to lemon juice in citrus marinades, make them a versatile and incredibly useful fruit to have in your kitchen.

Kiwis

Kiwis come into their peak season in the spring in the Northern Hemisphere, which means that you can enjoy a more local product instead of something imported from Australia or New Zealand. Not only are these fruits delicious, but they’re also incredibly healthy.

Grapefruit

Grapefruit is another one of our spring picks, as it comes into season just around the same time as their citrus cousin, the lemon does. Grapefruits provide a great Vitamin C boost to help you avoid getting sick and they’re are also super tasty if you like tart flavors.

Happy March! This month, we say goodbye to cold winters and hello to delicious spring produce. Knowing what produce is in season will save you tons of money as well as give you the opportunity to enjoy fruits and veggies at their prime time. Here are some of the best seasonal foods for March.

Beets

Not only are beets beautiful in color, but they offer tons of nutritional benefits. They promote healthy blood pressure and digestive functions. They also taste awesome when roasted and thrown into a flavorful salad.

Artichokes

Artichokes are low in fat while staying high in vitamins and minerals. To top it all off, artichokes are one of the most antioxidant-rich veggies out there.

Pineapple

This tangy, sweet, tropical fruit is at its peak in March. Due to its high Vitamin C content, pineapple boosts the immune system to help your body fight off viruses and other diseases.

Grapefruit

Amazing citrus fruits can be found in stores and farmers’ markets now. Grapefruit is an excellent choice for sweet-sour lovers. It tastes delicious on its own, but can also be enjoyed in salads or other dishes.
