Raspberries

Two Mexican windows: spring, and late autumn.

Raspberries run two Mexican windows: a spring peak and a second from October into December, with California adding a domestic summer. Like all soft berries the programme lives or dies on cold chain, which is picked up at the crossing and held through consolidation.
