Comment on Show HN: Fruits and vegetables in season in your zip code

Comments

Looks like a very neat idea.

I'm curious where the data comes from. For my zipcode (souther New Hampshire) it said apples are in peak season. Peak Apple around here ends early to late October (depending on weather).

Almost all the data right now is pulled from various USDA publications which I scraped, combined, sanity-checked and cleaned up. It's not perfect, but it's the best I could do as a first-run.

I'll have a look at southern New Hampshire specifically and see if anything weird is going on.
