Texas is one of the largest producers of fresh fruits and vegetables, so your choices are always endless. More than 60 commerical fruit and vegetable crops are grown in the Lone Star State — from apples to zucchini and everything in between.

Experience fresh fruits and vegetables in the produce aisle of your neighborhood grocery store, farmers market, community supported agriculture farm (CSA) or pick-your-own farm. You’ll be amazed at the freshness and satisfaction of meals you prepare with produce fresh from a Texas farm near you. This handy guide will let you know when Texas produce is available. Look for the GO TEXAN mark to ensure you are getting locally grown Texas produce.
