Hello--

We will be in the DR for February and March, north coast.
We were curious about what crops/ fruits will be in season during that period.
Avocados?
Mangos?
Pina?
What else?

Thanks so much!

Man, do I miss tropical fruits. Temporarily stuck in Houston, and forced to eat tiny shriveled up Mexican avocadoes. Ah, the good old day when I could just reach up into the neighbors tree (when he wasnt home) and pull down those giant green beauties.

When we left DR at the end of February last year, all the mango trees were sagging under the fruit - I was hoping there would be lots this year too!

We usually have avocados at the same time - we planted a variety called poponol [sp????] that bear fruit 2x a year, and they are yummy! SO looking forward to getting there!

I think avocados are in season now. They are very good now. Pineapples as well. Oranges not so much.
