Hi,
Here is my daughter,
Jessica, hard at work recording orders. She enjoyed meeting many of you
last Saturday and is looking forward to going on the road again with me
some time in the future.
My favorite fresh eating
peach - the Zee Lady - is available this week. I haven't been able to
offer it for the past couple of years. I recommend it very highly. It
is medium size and has a "melt in your mouth" texture. It has a rather
thin skin so is kind of difficult to peel for canning.
Elberta peaches are early
this year. The first of the crop is available this week. I will be
able to get them for a couple more weeks.
There will likely be 2
trucks on delivery this week so it would be helpful if you clarify your
delivery location when you order so we don't make any mistakes with
that.
Here is what is available for delivery on Saturday, Aug. 24.
Order deadline will be 5:00 Thursday, August 22.
Thanks,
Dale Graff

Red Gold Nectarine
This is my personal favorite nectarine. It has great flavor and texture and is freestone so it is easy to can, freeze or dry.

Pickling
cucumbers - I will do my best to get small ones. If I can't find
enough small ones, I will fill orders with mediums. You can take your
choice at delivery time. I have been delivering these for 10 years now
and due to the time between picking and delivery, they are a bit limp at
delivery time. People have had good luck firming them up in ice water
prior to pickling - 20 lb. box for $25 ($1.25/lb)
