November food holidays in the US focus on the end of a bountiful harvest and the beginning of the holiday season. November celebrates such occasions as Fun with Fondue Month, Peanut Butter Month, and "Eat with a Friend" Day. (It's the 25th; be sure to make a date now!)

November is root vegetable season, and it's time to dig up and store root vegetables like celeriac, parsnips, turnips, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.
Other vegetables and fruits in season in November include apples, arugula, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, cranberries, fennel, horseradish, kale, mushrooms, pomegranates, rosemary, sage, thyme, and winter squashes.
Alliums peak in the late fall, with leeks, shallots and onions in abundance.
