Winter in Florida brings a unique advantage! while much of the country faces limited harvests, our local farms are producing some of the freshest and most flavorful fruits and vegetables of the year. At Thrifty Specialty Produce & Meats, we love highlighting seasonal produce so you can enjoy peak freshness, better flavor, and great value.

Citrus Season Is at Its Best

Florida winter is citrus season. Oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, and lemons are abundant during December and January. They’re juicy, refreshing, and perfect for snacking, fresh juices, salads, and desserts – plus they’re packed with vitamin C.

Fresh Winter Vegetables

Cooler temperatures create ideal growing conditions for many vegetables. This time of year, you’ll find excellent quality:
1. Cabbage
2. Broccoli
3. Cauliflower
4. Collard greens
5. Kale
6. Lettuce varieties
These vegetables are perfect for soups, stews, sautés, and hearty winter meals.

Why Buy Seasonal Produce?

1. Better taste and freshness
2. More affordable prices

It’s a simple way to eat better while making the most of what Florida offers year-round.
