What's In Season: November
November is the time for collard greens, turkeys and Gulf oysters. In addition to those goodies, there are a limited amount of other vegetables, fruits and seafood coming into their peak season in Alabama this month. Look for these at your local farmers market, fish monger or U-Pick. November is also the start of fall turkey-hunting season.
