Nothing overly exciting at the moment:-

Apples, oranges, strawberries, bananas, cabbage, sprouts, aubergines, peppers, mushrooms, potatoes, herbs.

I'm sure other members will fill in the gaps...

Pomegranates about...but best in the autumn when in abundance.

No melons on display in the market as yet.... ;)
They are available in the height of summer.

Morels are a type of mushroom.
