Summer Week 9 - Fruit Share Newsletter

7/27/2013

0 Comments

 
This week we're bringing you a peek into avocado season! There's just one of these creamy green fruits in your box this week, and we hope to have more harvests for you between now and early fall. Wait until the skin yields to gentle pressure - don't break into it too early (we know it's tempting!). They are best when fully ripened. 

We have more Genips for you in the box this week. Remember, to eat these tasty lychee-like fruits just crack open the protective outer shell, then suck the sweet pulp off of the large central seed. 

The mangoes this week are a mix of Anderson, Springfield, Julie, Nom Doc and our own grafted varieties.

The bananas are a mix of Ice Cream, Cavendish and other sweet eating bananas.

Enjoy the harvest,

Claudia & the crew at Ridge to Reef Farm
