This week you’ve got a healthy amount of yellow peaches and white nectarines plus what is the last of the Pizzaz plums (finally) and possibly the last of the apricots – there might be just enough left to get a few out on the next regional delivery.

It’s been a BIG week on the farm with 10-14hours days back to back harvesting, grading, packing and delivering your fruit, and it doesn’t look like slowing down too soon. We managed…
