Some of them are also pleasantly pleased with the prices. Edition The Penny Hoarder collected a list of farm products that are worth buying in April in different US states due to low prices and excellent taste.

1. California: artichoke

California is still the manufacturer of the number XXNX of many of America’s favorite fruits and vegetables, and the prices for these products are very low in this state during the high season.

April is artichoke season in California. By the way, this state produces 99,99% of all commercially grown artichokes in the United States.

Despite the fact that they look rather strange, artichokes are very tasty, especially if you cook them with spinach, cheese or chicken hearts.

2. Florida: Blueberries

The northern states will wait a long time for the harvest of these berries, but in Florida they are already ripe. You can go looking for them yourself, or you can visit a blueberry farm where you can buy berries much cheaper than in stores.

3. Massachusetts: Fava beans and greens

In mid-April, the fava bean season is just beginning, while the green season is coming to an end, but this is an excellent period to find competitive prices for both.

4. Oregon: Rhubarb

The sales season for this plant is quite short - from mid-March to mid-May, after which you will not see it on the shelves. If you find rhubarb on sale, buy it, since the next such opportunity may arise only in a year.

5. Midwest: Radish

When choosing a radish in the market, find one that has the size of a ping-pong ball (but not more than a golf ball), as it increases in size and taste.

The light and crisp taste of radish makes it an excellent ingredient for making spring salads.
