We did harvest Fuyu for storage. Most are still firm but not crunchy. Come in soon if you want to take advantage of these final Fuyu for the season.. I predict we will continue to sell Fuyu for a couple weeks but know that they are getting more tender and of course sweeter.
We still have other persimmons. Maru (brown fleshed), Vodka (Hyakume persimmons treated with vodka to sweeten them), and a few Hachiya.
It is time now for mandarins. These are sweet and easy to peel. The ones from Pleasant Hill Farm are seedless. We hope to harvest Otow Orchard mandarins in a couple weeks.
If you are looking for gift ideas, consider items we have: Master Gardener's 2019 calendar, Local Honey, Calendula Salve and Lip Balm, bagged Mandarins, and Good Stuff Jams
