Longer hours this Saturday

We will stay open until 2pm this Saturday, June 25.
Mounts Garden is holding a tropical fruit festival that morning, so our extended hours will make it possible for festival goers to buy fruit after attending the event.

This Saturday's selection of mangos will feature Valencia Prides and a large first harvest of Kents. We also have a substantial amount of Carrie mangos, but this might be the last Saturday for Carries. Other varieties that we have a significant amount of include Duncan, Van Dyke, Choc Anon, Tess Pollock, and Florigon.

Because our grove is so close to the ocean, our mangos ripen earlier than those in the rest of the county. We have finished harvesting several varieties of mangos and all of our lychees, but we grow so many varieties that we will have great mangos to sell for at least another month. Also, in a few weeks, we will have carambola, sugar apple and jak fruit.

Additional Hours

This week we will be open Monday, June 20, and Wednesday, June 22, from 4:30-5:30.

Special Opportunity This Afternoon!

The rain storm last night was wonderful, but this morning we had lots of fallen mangos.
I bagged up some really good drops and will give away a bag per $25 purchase this afternoon (while supplies last).

We will be open this afternoon 4:30-5:30.

Hours This Week

In addition to our normal Saturday morning hours, we will be open this Monday and Wednesday from 4:30 to 5:30 pm.

Valencia Prides!

Today the first Valencia Pride mangos of the season were ready to pick! Apparently 2011 is a great year for Carrie, Duncan, Van Dyke, Florigon, Joellen, and Valencia Pride. The Keitts and Kents are not quite ready to pick, but those varieties also look plentiful.

Lychees are still available, but sometimes we run short of picked fruit.

In the next couple of weeks, jak fruit should start to ripen. Different varieties will ripen over the next two months.

If you are interested in jak fruit or large quantities of lychee, please let us know so that we can call/email you when we have them to sell.

Shipping boxes arrived earlier this week, and already people have packed some full of mangos to send to friends and relatives..
