Cannery Update

I found out what's going on at our cannery in St. Paul. 

Everything will stay as it has been until the end of the year.  Sometime early next year, the cannery will no longer be canning dry pack.  Everything item they currently have for dry pack will come pre-packaged in #10 cans.  They will continue to sell bulk bags of their products.  The portable canner will still be available with blank cans and lids for check out as well. 

Blueberries are Ready!

I just heard from Brother Lim that Early Blues variety blueberries are ready to be picked at Cora's Crop on Case Road in Aurora.  Here's a LINK.

Dale Graff Produce for this week.

Deer Island Farms

 

Hi, Bluecrop blueberries are new on the list this week.  Supplies are limited so order early for best chances. Cherry update.  There continues to be unseasonable rain in the Yakima Valley and it is up in the air as to whether the rest of the crop will be ruined before I can get another load.  Go ahead and place orders for cherries but I may need to cancel them if the quality is poor. Unless noted as "new crop," items below are from the 2012 harvest.   Beaverton - Make Note.  Home Depot asked that I not make deliveries there any more.  The new delivery location is the parking lot of Michael's Arts and Crafts on Western - just south of Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy.    Order deadline will be 5:00 Wednesday, June 26. Thanks, Dale Graff Deer Island Farms (503) 556-0524 Cell (503) 410-1720
