North Dakota Harvest Calendar - PickYourOwn.org

What's in season in May 2025, and other timely information:

This page has a table below that tells when each fruit or vegetable is normally ready to be harvested North Dakota! I've got to first tell you that North Dakota is a very tough state to get data on, so a lot of the information below is a best guess.  Please write in to help me correct and refine it! We also have a page with links to our own simple instructions on canning, freezing and drying  many fruits and vegetables, such as  how to make jam, apple butter, applesauce, spaghetti sauce, salsa, pickles, ketchup or freezing corn.

The light green indicates light crops at the beginning or end of a season - dark green is when the bulk of the crop ripens and picking is best.
