Fruit Share News

May 3rd, 2007 by megc

Thought I’d post a little bit more info about what you’re likely to see in your fruit share!

Our Fruit Share comes from Hepworth Farms

Beginning of summer: strawberries, cherries, possibly rhubarb

Mid-summer: peaches (different varieties), plums (different varieties), nectarines, possibly apricots

End of summer into fall: apples (tydman, ginger gold, paula red, johnamac, empire, gala, macintosh, spartan), pears (green and red clapp, devoe, bosc, seckel), raspberries, blue raspberries. Possibly quince; let us know if this interests you.

As you can see with the apples and pears, there are some old fashioned/heirloom varieties. Lots of variety. Very exciting!

Fruit, yum!
