Another Mango Monday

Mangos for tomorrow look great.  I found some very nice Valencia Pride today.  We have lots of nice Hadens, and ripe Carries.  We have other varieties ready also, but no full boxes.

Some Valencia Pride from one of our small trees...


We haven't started to pick Zill, Van Dyke, Keitt and Kent.

This Week, etc.

We are in peak season for Carrie mangos.  Some of our trees will finish producing for the year within the next ten days.  Supply is good, and many of the mangos are ripe or close to ripe.

Perhaps by Saturday the second crop of Bailey's Marvel will start to ripen.  Valencia Pride's peak season will probably be in about 2 weeks.  Most of the second crop of Jakarta, Zill Indochinese and Beverly hasn't been picked yet.  We still have some Lemon Meringue (PPK), Florigon, Duncan, Fairchild, Glenn, and Cogshall.  We are still waiting for Zill, Van Dyke, Kent, Keitt, Best, Cushman, Bombay and Pickering.

Other Fruit...
Carambola are looking and tasting great.  We grow Bell and Fwang Tung.
Sugar Apple are at least a couple weeks away from the beginning of their season.
Sapodilla are still available.
Black Sapote are few
Jak Fruit will be available for the next month, but we can't accurately predict when they will be ripe.

Saturday Fruit

When I last checked the jak fruit, none was ready to pick.  We should have some carambola, sapodilla and black sapote.


Mangos....

The amount of Valencia Pride for sale will only be modest.  Next week should be better.

We will have at least two boxes of Carrie.

Also we will have some Haden, Tommy Atkins, Duncan, Glenn, Cogshall and a few other varieties.


~Our mango supply is improving, but we seem to be a couple weeks away from the peak of our late season~
