Fresh harvests, rather than shop availability

A crop appears when growers in Belgium normally harvest it during that month. The calendar excludes imports and produce available only from long-term storage, heated greenhouses, or other protected methods.

Locally grown produce sold outside these harvest months may have been stored after harvest. A blank fruit or vegetable month does not mean shops have no locally grown produce.

This is a selected catalogue of common fruit and vegetables, not a complete list of every crop in Belgium. Herbs, mushrooms, nuts and rhubarb are outside its scope. Tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers are grouped with vegetables.

Seasons vary across Belgium

This is an approximate national guide, not a local crop forecast. Weather, latitude, altitude, cultivar, and farming method can shift harvest dates by several weeks. Harvests may begin earlier in warmer areas and later in cooler areas.

The Brussels Environment calendar covers Belgium and neighbouring northern France. It excludes heated greenhouses and marks stored produce separately. The catalogue keeps only fresh months and omits forced chicory.

Use the calendar to plan seasonal meals, then check what's being harvested by growers near you. The month ranges describe typical seasons rather than a prediction for this year's weather.

Belgium calendar sources

The catalogue draws on Brussels Environment's local and seasonal calendar. Its cross-border coverage is a guide to typical harvests, rather than a forecast for every Belgian grower. Read the source guide and methodology for how evidence is selected.
