Tropical Growing Paradise

Miami's tropical climate features hot, humid summers around 90°F and warm winters at 60°F, with no frost ever. The unique oolitic limestone soil of South Florida, combined with year-round growing conditions and 61 inches of rain, creates America's only tropical farming region. The Everglades' rich muck soil produces winter vegetables for the entire nation.

Miami's Farming History

Miami's agriculture began with Seminole gardens and expanded when Flagler's railroad opened markets up north. The area became America's winter vegetable basket and pioneered tropical fruit growing. Today's farms range from massive operations in the Redlands to small tropical fruit specialists, with many offering agritourism to preserve farmland from development.

What Grows near Miami

Strawberry season runs December through March when the rest of America is frozen. Tropical fruits like mangoes ripen in summer, along with lychees and longans. Avocados have multiple seasons depending on variety. Winter brings tomatoes, peppers, and beans that supply the nation. Many farms grow exotic fruits like jackfruit, star fruit, and dragon fruit you won't find anywhere else in the continental US.

Planning Your Farm Visit

Farms cluster in the Redlands area (45 minutes via US-1) and Homestead. Visit mornings year-round to avoid afternoon thunderstorms in summer. Winter offers perfect weather and peak strawberry season. Hurricane season (June-November) may affect schedules. Traffic to farm areas is usually manageable. Many farms offer tropical fruit tastings and sell fruit trees for home gardens.
