Seasonal produce calendar in the Caribbean

For provisioning in Antigua, St. Lucia (Rodney Bay), Martinique, Guadeloupe, Grenada, St. Martin, the Grenadines, Barbados. The rest of the Caribbean borrows the Puerto Rico chart — the nearest one we have — so it only nudges towards what's in season and never flags imports. Puerto Rico chart in weekly cells (dark = abundant, light = less): a month counts as in season when at least two of its weeks are abundant; a month with no marks at all is flagged as likely imported; light-only months are neither. Read by sampling each cell's colour from screenshots of the PDF. 'Sweet pepper' is used for bell pepper ('Peppers', all year, is left out — it may mean chillies); 'Pumpkin' for butternut squash; 'Pink grapefruit' for grapefruit.
