Jamaican Seasonal Fruit for Summer
If you’re planning a trip to Jamaica this summer, make sure a visit to the Taste of Jamaica Farm, Herbal Garden, and Food Tour in Ocho Rios is at the top of your list. This authentic farm experience brings you closer to the island’s vibrant agriculture, where you can enjoy the best seasonal fruits Jamaica has to offer.
Summer in Jamaica means an explosion of flavors. Think juicy mangoes—East Indian, Julie, and Bombay varieties—ripe for the picking. Sweet, tart otaheite apples, buttery avocados, refreshing watermelon, and the beloved naseberry all reach peak season during the warmer months. And don’t miss out on the local guinep and soursop, fruits that Jamaicans look forward to every summer.
At Taste of Jamaica, you’ll get to walk through our lush farm and herbal garden, sample fruits fresh off the tree, and learn about the traditional uses of herbs and plants in Jamaican culture. It’s not just a tour—it’s an experience that immerses you in real Jamaican life.
Want to take it a step further? Join our cooking class, where you can learn to prepare authentic Jamaican dishes using ingredients straight from the farm. Our local chefs will teach you how to make favorites like jerk chicken, curried goat, festival, and coconut rundown. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced cook, you’ll leave with new skills and a taste of the island to bring back home.
If you’re looking for something real, fresh, and unforgettable this summer, come taste Jamaica with us.
