What's in season in September

September is harvest time. Home growers are picking apples, pears, the last plums and sweetcorn, tomatoes, runner beans, autumn raspberries and blackberries. Squash, pumpkins, leeks and kale begin, and dahlias are at their best.

Grower tip: Apples, pears and squash store for weeks, so you don't have to share them all at once. Mark some as pre-orders for collection later in the autumn.
