FRUITS

Peach

Harvested at peak maturity to bring on those sweet juicy flavors. Nothing is better than a perfectly ripe peach that burst full of that taste we have all grown to love. White Peaches in contrast to a tangy Yellow Peach will have a very mellow high sugar taste to leads to a different flavor profile. As the season goes on so does are volume in Peaches which headline our Soft Fruit late program. 

Nectarine

Just imagine a sweet full flavor juicy peach and now take off that fuzz. That’s what our nectarine lineup is like. Starting in May and continuing on when most shippers have stopped in the fall, it is our nectarine farms in a small micro climate in the Central Valley that allows us to harvest fresh Nectarines two weeks later than most.  Available in white and yellow fleshes our Nectarine line-up has quickly become one of the best commodities we offer.

Plum

We have a huge array of Plums to offer into the market: Red Skin, Dark Skin, Green Skin, Red Flesh, Yellow Flesh, Mottled or not. All of our Plums are firm in texture and juicy in the interior. We offer Plums May through Thanksgiving with our Green Plum program in August becoming a customer favorite.

Cherry

Cherries kick-off our Spring program harvested a week or so before our other tree fruit are ready. We take pride in providing the freshest cherries possible. This little piece of fruit is packed with health-benefiting nutrients and unique antioxidants.

Pomegranate

This “super fruit” that is well known for its health benefit through its high level anti-oxidants helps headline our fall program. This fruit is used in a numerous amount of ways for juicing, topping or just breaking them open and eating those arils. Our season will start in the fall and run all the way through the winter.

Persimmon

Our highly touted Hachiya program will get off to an early start when most other shippers our two weeks away. The baking persimmon, Hachiyas will run from early October and will extend through the Thanksgiving and Christmas rush. Fuyus are the flat shaped variety that are eaten like an apple. Whether it is the cooking or the eating persimmon variety our extended availability is rivaled by none.

This items will start in the fall and sometimes be available early into January.
