I am officially nicknaming this weekend "waterfall weekend", as we have waterfalls of stone fruit, mangoes, corn, tomatoes, plums, melons, etc. all throughout the stall. With blueberries done and no cherries until later in the afternoon, we had a pretty smooth ride today.
First weekend of Bartlett pears: People have been looking for them for weeks. I always say to the first person who asks about something: "Well, usually I start getting questions about things about 3 weeks before it's ready, so based on that I would say we will have that item in 3 weeks". Pears were no different!
This nectarine is a handful, and make my eyes water with bliss as I devoured it. They were rock hard when they arrived and are beginning to ripen under the lights today. I started sampling them once I found ripe ones and sold them by the case!
Sunrise Apples, the crowd pleasers! Followed by Tydemans, which I have nothing good to say about. At least you know if I say something is good, it must be, because I can't lie!
Re-dicilous mangoes!
I don't know what it is about prune plums, but they seem to be pretty special. People go nuts for them and seem to have a twinge of "plum snobbiness"... (like "peach snobbiness", only about prune plums.)
