Mangos are my favorite fruit. It has been a while since I had a good mango. My mom has a mango tree that has some pretty good mangos. It is so nice when you can grow your own foods and don't have to spend all that money at grocery stores like everyone else.

What fruits are you referring to that should be in this season?  Today they grow and sell anything!

For the most part, I rarely find fruit in the winter (Michigan) that is as flavorful as it is in the summer.  I often find that it is a waste of money.  Once in a while I buy the frozen fruit and it suffices, but I can't wait until about May when I can start going to the Farmer's Market.  Yum-yum!

Living in upstate NY, Its a very short fruit season here.  I have to depend on the market for fruit most of the year

Strawberries are one of my favorite. Surprisingly you can find good ones in the winter, but not always.

If you shop online or farmers markets, you could probably find fruits all year long.

I live in Florida, our stores and flea markets usually have a good variety at all times. Not everything is available all the time, but it sure makes it a treat when it is.

   I know what you mean. See if you can find some frozen, canned or in candies.

I bought some Strawberries at the store yesterday. They were 2.50 for a pound which isn't a bad price. Fortunately, they had strawberries from California AND Florida! I only buy strawberries from Florida if I am going to eat them plain or with a little sugar. The ones from California are hard and have no taste. Florida produces softer, redder, sweeter strawberries that are full of flavor.

If watermelon and strawberries were in season all year, that would be so amazing.

Are strawberries in season right now? I found some really good deals on strawberries, but I thought it was still too cold for them.
