Seasonal produce calendar in Australia

For provisioning in Sydney (Pittwater), the Whitsundays (Airlie Beach), Brisbane, Hobart, Melbourne, Fremantle, Darwin. National guide by season (summer Dec–Feb, autumn Mar–May, winter Jun–Aug, spring Sep–Nov), published 11 April 2023; page text as shown in the browser on 2026-10-07. Australian-grown, so tropical fruit (from Queensland) counts as local nationwide. It only says what's in season, so it never flags imports. 'Pumpkin' is used for butternut squash, 'capsicum' for bell pepper, 'beans' for green beans, 'lettuce' for romaine; a lime counts where it's listed under fruit.
