What's in Season in Wyoming
What's in season in Wyoming, month by month
Typical seasonal windows for the Mountain West region. These are sourced from Cooperative Extension harvest calendars — they're a regional guide, not a guarantee that a given crop is ready in your town on a given date. "From storage" marks crops kept from an earlier harvest rather than picked fresh that month.

How to use this calendar at the market
The single most reliable seasonality guide in Wyoming is the farmer who grew the thing, standing behind their table. Walk the whole market once before buying — what's piled high and priced well is almost always what's in season right now. Ask vendors what's just come in and what's nearly done, and when something hits its peak and the price drops, that's the moment to buy extra for freezing or canning. For the bigger picture, see our national what's-in-season produce calendar.
Frequently asked questions
What produce is in season in Wyoming right now?
It depends on the month, but Wyoming follows the Mountain West region's typical pattern. Use the month-by-month table above for your month, then confirm at your local farmers market — the farmers know what's actually peaking that week.
When is peak season at Wyoming farmers markets?
Summer is the peak — that's when tomatoes, sweet corn, peppers, melons, and berries come in across the Mountain West region. Spring brings the first greens and strawberries; fall shifts to apples, squash, and root crops.
Why might these dates be off for my town in Wyoming?
These are typical regional windows, not a town-by-town guarantee. Your elevation, that year's weather, and whether a farmer uses greenhouses or high tunnels can shift any crop by a few weeks. Treat the calendar as a starting point.
