BC strawberries are my absolute favourite fruit in the world. I literally count down the days to the farmers markets so that I can go buy local strawberries every weekend in the early summer. I never purchase strawberries otherwise.
At the markets I also find potatoes, green onions, lots of varieties of kale, cauliflower, cherries, blueberries, raspberries, squash, cucumbers, bell peppers, zucchinis, asparagus, carrots, and a lot of other leafy stuff that I don’t know the names of.
The BC government has a website that tells people what’s grown locally and in season which lists some I’ve missed: https://buybc.gov.bc.ca/eat-local/whats-in-season/ (it also has some recipes that feature BC-produced ingredients.
