Across every region on FarmHop. Darker months are peak somewhere; your own region is narrower, and the table below gives it.
What to look for
- 1
Look for plump grapes firmly attached to green stems
- 2
Taste one first. Grapes don't ripen after picking
- 3
A dusty bloom on the skin is natural and good
- 4
Use scissors to cut bunches rather than pulling
- 5
Avoid bunches with shriveled or brown grapes

Farms that publish a price
Taken from the farm's own website, never from a directory. Most publish nothing at all, so these are worth knowing.
