Typical Crop and Harvest Dates in South Carolina

These are the typical, historical dates that crops are ready to be picked or harvested in South Carolina. Of course, it varies a little bit every year, depending upon the weather and other conditions. And South Carolina is a diverse state; crops start (and finish) weeks earlier in warmer coastal areas than in colder mountain regions! So, always call the farms well ahead of the dates below to verify!
