Seasonal produce calendar
November produce by U.S. region
What’s in season in November by coarse U.S. region — roots, squash, and hardy greens. A cooking calendar, not a store locator or restaurant directory.
Geo-aware cooking calendar — not NAP, restaurant listings, or LocalBusiness SEO.
How to use this
Pick the band closest to you for what’s in season near you. Farmers’ markets and frost dates beat static lists. November is peak storage-crop season in much of the U.S. — roots, squash, hardy greens — with citrus just waking in southern pockets. This is cooking guidance for seasonal produce — not a restaurant map, store locator, or street address.
Treat Northern November cues as opposite-season sense in the Southern Hemisphere — use Set my region rather than this default calendar. Coarse region only; no NAP / LocalBusiness.
Northeast & Midwest
Hard frost country: storage apples and pears, squash, pumpkins, potatoes, onions, cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, carrots, beets, turnips, celery root. Greenhouse tomatoes only if labeled honest. Citrus is still mostly inbound.
Recipe ideas: Roasted root tray · squash skillet · kale–bean pots · apple desserts while storage fruit holds.
South
Sweet potatoes strong; greens (collards, kale, mustard) coming in hard; cabbage family; some citrus starting in Gulf and Florida pockets; peppers lingering in warm microclimates only.
Recipe ideas: Sweet-potato sides; greens pots; root trays; tomato only if still local-honest.
Mountain / High Plains
Lean fully into storage: squash, roots, apples, hardy greens under cover. Tender herbs are done outdoors — finish them or buy protected.
Recipe ideas: Root tray; squash; apple while quality holds; bean-and-greens.
West Coast
PNW: apples, pears, squash, roots, hardy greens. California: citrus ramping in the south and Central valleys; greens; late squash; grapes winding down. Coastal markets stay greener longer.
Recipe ideas: Root tray; squash; citrus as it arrives honest; greens.
Southwest
Chiles (fresh or roasted storage), storage squash, greens as nights stay cool. Desert pockets may still show warm-season leftovers — skip them if quality is gone.
Recipe ideas: Chile-forward pans; squash; roots; greens.
