A few fruit are starting to get some color. Our farm stand is starting to expand its display. And it is time to move back to our regular hours.
Tuesday through Saturday 10am to 6pm
Sunday 11am to 5pm
CLOSED ON MONDAYS
Please take note: we will be closed on Saturday June 12 for a wedding reception. Please plan around this date.
Robada apricots and Spring Rose white peaches are just giving us a tease. At this point we are picking them firm to avoid bird damage. We suggest people leave them on the counter for a day or three before eating.
Mulberries are slowing down and are usually only available by pre ordering.
WoodRose Country Garden keeps surprising us. We are now getting snow peas, Anaheim chilies, zucchini, spring onions, cabbage, basil, and amazing Greek oregano.
A few people are busy processing and preparing our ume, Japanese sour plums. Although our ume sold out, I am continuing to sell ume produced on a local conventional farm.
Hoshigaki, dried persimmons, are available in the farm stand. On warm days you may need to ask for them. We have to keep them in a cool place so they don't melt. Hoshigaki is also available thru mail order. Use the 2020 mail order form to get ordering information.
Please take note: we will be closed on Saturday June 12 for a wedding reception. Please plan around this date.
Here is what we have at the Farm Stand from Otow Orchard:
Spring Rose : 🍑 early season white peach
Robada: early season apricot
Hoshigaki: Tender and moist dried persimmons with naturally formed dusting of fruit sugars on the surface. These were hand massaged and dried slowly for 4 to 8 weeks.
Loquat: These small orange fruit are sweet with peach-like texture.
Eureka Lemons: deep yellow skin and tart juicy flesh. 🍋 Best lemons to bring out the brightness desired in lemonade and lemon meringue pie.
Valencia Oranges: Juicing oranges, also good for just peeling and eating.
Pakistani Mulberries: Long, dark, juicy and sweet.
