What's Fresh in North Florida: September 2026
September 15, 2026 · Fresh Map · 1 min read
What's realistically at a North Florida farm stand or market table this month, based on typical Florida harvest timing rather than a guess. This list comes straight from Fresh Map's own produce-season calendar, filtered to September.
In season right now
- Okra — one of the steadiest late-summer crops in the region, running from early summer well into fall.
- Cucumbers — back in season after a brief midsummer gap.
- Eggplant — mid-summer straight through fall.
- Southern peas (field peas, crowder, black-eyed) — a late-summer staple.
- Boiled peanuts — the same late-summer window as southern peas.
- Fresh herbs — in season nearly the entire growing year, still going strong.
- Muscadines — a short window, just August and September. These are usually a u-pick crop, so it's worth searching for a farm that still has vines open before the season ends.
- Sweet potatoes — the harvest is just getting started and runs into fall.
- Avocado — Florida's green-skin avocados run through the fall.
Why this list, why now
This list comes from Fresh Map's own Florida produce-season calendar, filtered to September. It's a dated post, not a page that regenerates itself — October will get its own new post, checked against that same calendar rather than carried over from this one. By that same calendar, September already counts as fall in Florida terms — even on a week where the forecast doesn't agree.
