Season calendar

Goldenberry season by country

Colombia ships uchuva — cape gooseberry — most of the year, with a clear end-of-year peak. What the calendar looks like month by month.

Available all year, peak October–January, from Colombia. The rest of the year is shoulder supply rather than a gap.

Last reviewed August 2026. Windows are editorial ranges for a normal year, not a published schedule, and they are export weeks out of the origin rather than arrival weeks in your market.

Uchuva, cape gooseberry, physalis: the same small orange fruit in its papery husk, and Colombia is effectively the only origin exporting it at scale. Harvest runs most of the year with a firm peak into the Northern Hemisphere winter, when European demand for it is highest.

It is a high-value, low-volume export and it travels in its husk, which does a remarkable amount of the preservation work. Enough of it now goes by sea rather than air that the transit is worth watching — but the margin for error on temperature is narrow and the cargo is valuable enough that a lost container hurts.
