What Produce is in Season for Fall?

As the leaves change colors and the temperatures drop, it is time to welcome fall flavors. This season offers an abundance of fresh and flavorful produce, from hearty root vegetables to succulent apples and pears. Fall fruits, fall vegetables, and fall herbs take center stage at this time of year, making it perfect for long-simmered soups, sauces, braising, baking, and other forms of cooking that the heat prevented us from enjoying in the summer. If you want to make the most of what you will find in Cash Saver’s produce section this fall, look no further as we share with you what fall produce is now featured at Cash Saver. 

Apples 

Autumn is a season of colorful foliage, cool breezes, and abundant, delicious produce. While pumpkins are a common sight during this time of year, nothing captures the essence of fall like a crisp and juicy apple. With over 7,500 varieties grown worldwide, each with unique flavor and texture, apples have become a classic symbol of the season. Whether you prefer a tart Granny Smith or a sweet Honeycrisp, there’s an apple perfect for everyone’s taste buds. 

Choose Red Delicious, Granny Smith, or Gala apples for your next snack or baking project. Try them in homemade applesauce, apple cider, or a classic apple pie with a scoop of ice cream. 

Butternut Squash 

As autumn approaches, the versatile and flavorful butternut squash takes center stage as one of the most beloved fall vegetables. Its smooth skin and elongated shape set it apart, making it easy to cook with and enjoy in countless recipes throughout the fall and winter seasons. From savory soups to sweet desserts, the possibilities for cooking this earthy, nutty, and delicious squash are endless. 

Carrots 

Carrots are an irresistible snack, especially when paired with hummus. Whether you prefer them crunchy or soft and flavorful after being steamed or cooked, you will surely enjoy their unique taste. Although the bright orange variety is commonly found at Cash Saver, during fall, you can also find heirloom carrots in a rainbow of colors, including purple, white, and yellow. 

Glazed carrots have been a timeless and perfect side dish choice. However, you can try different variations, such as grated carrots with spices and herbs, roasted carrots with citrus zest, or carrots baked into a delicious cake. Plus, carrots served in a hearty beef stew add just the right touch.  

Mushrooms 

Mushroom varieties are available throughout the year but are more abundant and taste better during the fall season. You can choose between cremini and portabella mushrooms to give stews a wonderful earthiness. On the other hand, shitake mushrooms add a unique flavor to stir-fries, soups, and even pizzas! Additionally, you can enhance the taste of vegetarian lasagna with mushrooms. The culinary possibilities with mushrooms are vast and endless. 

Pears 

Pears are a luscious and juicy fruit that comes in many varieties, just like apples. One such variety is the Bartlett pear, which is perfect for adding a sweet crunch to salads or enjoying as a snack right out of your hand. Another type is the Bosc pear, which has a crisp texture that makes it ideal for baking in a buttery tart. When choosing pears, opt for ones that are still firm to the touch, as these will ripen perfectly on the counter to become a succulent and sweet addition to all sorts of fall dishes. Whether making a warm pear and cinnamon oatmeal, a savory pear and blue cheese salad, or a comforting pear and ginger pie, these versatile fruits will surely delight your taste buds. 

Pumpkins and Additional Fall Produce 

It does not feel like fall without pumpkins! Whether for decoration as a jack-o-lantern, a yummy soup, or a delectable pie, pumpkins and fall will always go hand in hand. Apart from pumpkins, you can also enjoy other delicious fall produce such as sweet potatoes, Brussels sprouts, cranberries, kale, figs, cauliflower, cabbage, beets, and various herbs like fennel and sage. All these fantastic produce items can be found at Cash Saver.
